Supporting Kindergarten - 2nd Grade Alpha Students

At Alpha, our K-2 classrooms are filled with creativity, exploration and hands-on learning. Throughout the year, exciting opportunities arise that go beyond basic classroom supplies—and we want to be ready for them! To help us respond to these special moments, we are launching the Alpha Program Supply Fund.  

Your donation helps provide:

  • 3D printer filament for STEM projects

  • Craft supplies for scientific models

  • Materials for hands-on science exploration

  • Resources for special literacy and math projects

  • Unique learning opportunities as they arise

Why give?

  • Gives teachers the flexibility to respond to real-time needs

  • Reduces out-of-pocket expenses for educators

  • Enhances creative, hands-on learning experiences

  • Directly impacts students in meaningful ways
