Help Nate Build His First Classroom
Donation protected
Hello, and thank you for reading! I'm Nate MacDowell, and I'm about to embark on a journey I've been working toward since I was in the first grade: my first year in a classroom of my own! After spending several years working with children in different settings, as a paraprofessional, a therapist, and as a teacher, I am finally taking on the challenge of a fourth grade classroom in Duluth, MN. While I am excited to be diving in, I am finding that putting a classroom together is a bit overwhelming. I am grateful to have inherited some classroom supplies, but there are still many things I need to help bring my vision for the room to life. I am working at a high-needs school, and I want to provide a comfortable space with the supplies students deserve and need for their success.
I am asking for help raising funds to purchase supplies for my classroom. As I am discovering new things that are needed in the space each day, it is hard to ask for specific items or to know what/how much I'll need to bring the room together. All funds raised will be used to directly benefit students. I will post before and after pictures of the room before the school year begins, but if you make a donation and message me your address, I will send you a photo and a handwritten card as a token of gratitude. If you can't or would not like to donate, please consider sending some encouraging words my way before the school year starts instead!
Thank you for your consideration as I work to bring a long-time dream to life! Here we go! ✏️
