At the Teachers Desk


"The Fundred Project is a art project that focuses on bringing awareness to lead-contaminated soil in major U.S. cities and contributes. These valuable drawings will be picked up by a special armored truck and presented to the U.S. Congress with a request for an even exchange of the creative capital–your Fundreds–for real funding to make safe lead-polluted soils in New Orleans." Students from around the country will be designing Fundred dollar bills in an effort to raise awareness.

I think this is a great and neat experience for the children. My neice alyssa is in 5th grade and said that her school does this. She says "the children think it is a fun and great history project."CLICK HERE
