Items Needed
“I found it very exciting to get the supplies. I have used all the materials that I picked up on my first visit. The most needed supplies were the consumables like, dry erase markers, composition books. However, as a teacher, it is also a fun challenge to see how old office supplies can be modified for classroom use. Thanks to all the donors. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.” Chelsea Cattouse-Wilson – Gillespie Park Elementary
