School Supplies
- Idea Submission for The People's Money:
- Ongoing School Supplies for Students
- What is the problem your idea aims to address?
- Many students across New York City start the school year without access to essential supplies like notebooks, pens, backpacks, and technology tools needed for learning. Families facing financial hardship often struggle to keep up with the ongoing costs of restocking supplies throughout the year, which can affect students’ confidence, participation, and academic performance. By providing continuous access to free supplies, this initiative ensures that every student—regardless of family income—has the materials they need to stay engaged and succeed in school all year long.
