Pennies for Pencils

For 2025-2026 School Year

What is Pennies for Pencils?

Our Pennies for Pencils initiative is a great way for communities to come together and make a difference in the lives of children. By donating even just a few cents, you can help provide schools with the necessary supplies they need to give students the best education possible. These small donations add up quickly, and can make a huge impact on the lives of those who need it most.

At Circulo De Chispas, we believe that every student deserves to have access to the supplies they need to thrive in the classroom. From pencils to tissue boxes, these essentials can make a big difference in a student's academic success. That's why we are dedicated to providing our local schools with the supplies they need through community donations. Even small donations of pennies can make a huge impact and help us reach our goal of ensuring that no student is without the supplies they need to learn and succeed.

Provide Needed Supplies

At Circulo De Chispas, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to succeed, and we believe in creating opportunities through Pennies for Pencils, a program aimed at providing school supplies to children in need. We know that children who are not properly prepared for class often feel left out and discouraged from their studies. By providing these essential materials, we give children the chance to keep up with their classmates and achieve academic success.

Impact Classroom

Pennies for Pencils is designed to help teachers provide the tools and supplies their students need to succeed. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, over 95% of public school teachers in Texas, on average, spent $485 during the 2020-21 school year out of their own pockets to provide supplies for their classroom. Our goal is to raise money to alleviate this financial burden on teachers. Every little bit helps, even if it's a small amount. Learn More
