My name is Mila, and I am a ninth-grader from San Jose, California. My quilt intends to address the inequity between public schools in the United States - the uneven distribution of resources, the way school funding is so dependant on neighborhood wealth -, as well as the undeniable role education plays in making us who we are. This issue also extends into my community action project. I will be collecting donations of backpacks and school supplies to be assembled and donated to families at my local HomeFirst homeless shelter. These backpacks will give kids a set of supplies they can call their own, providing them with an additional opportunity for academic excitement and success.
