Sneezes and Spills and Stickers Oh My!
Funded Mar 20, 2025So grateful for your kindness in supporting our classroom with some of the basic necessities for a comfortable space. Tissues and paper towels are used on a daily basis and we are always running out. Also our microphones run on double A batteries that don't last more than a few days. These supplies you generously provided will really go a long way.”

Use Your Headphones!
Funded Dec 18, 2023I just wanted to thank you for providing us our brand new headphones for our music classroom. They've already come in handy, assisting in the editing of a plethora of new PS22 Chorus videos. The sound quality of the headphones is magnificent, and they are comfortable to wear for the long period of time required for the editing process.
It means the world that the Donorschoose community continues to be supportive of our students and our music classroom. Thank you for your generous donations.”

A New Piano Would Be Music to Our Ears
Funded May 8, 2023There will never be enough words to express our gratitude for your incredible generosity. Having a new, fully functioning piano has been integral in the continued success of the PS22 Chorus and our music program as a whole.
While my students are aware that they have a worldwide audience, the impact of knowing they have supporters willing and eager to contribute financially is beyond their comprehension. To say they were blown away by your generosity is a huge understatement.
Thank you for showing my students that there is still good in this world, and thank you for donating so generously to my kids and investing in their talent!”

Sneezes And Spills And Boo-Boos Oh My!
Funded May 17, 2023Thank you so much for providing our students with those wonderful everyday essentials all teachers need to keep children safe, comfortable, and prepared for common eventualities in an elementary school classroom! We now are all set to contend with runny/bloody noses, small cuts and bruises, spills, etc., all those instances which are commonplace to any elementary school classroom. The children and I are so grateful to have your continued support, and we thank you very much for your generous donations to our music classroom.”

Be Our Guitar Hero!
Funded Apr 15, 2021Thank you so much for supporting our music classroom with our beautiful Ovation guitar. The sound of the instrument is beautiful and perfectly complements the outstanding singing of my choral group and music students. The children were so excited to receive the new instrument and audible excitement could be heard and felt as the kids opened the box and saw their brand new guitar. The sound of our previous broken-down guitar doesn't hold a candle to the amazing sounds coming from our new instrument, and our students and I are so grateful for your generosity for this marked improvement to our music classroom.”

Help Us Take CHARGE With A STEM Cart
Funded Dec 3, 2019Thank you so much for our beautiful new STEM cart! We had a real problem storing and charging our kids' iPads in a safe and efficient way, and the new cart has made that problem a thing of the past. The new cart allows us to charge a full class set of iPads simultaneously and safely lock up the devices as well.
We used to have to rotate the devices to be charged, and leave them out overnight in order to complete the task. The kids' needed to share devices because there was no way to keep them all fully charged and ready for use throughout the day. Now, in addition to their group work, our students are enjoying working independently on their own projects, and are able to keep to their own pace.
Thank you for your generosity!”

Funded Sep 26, 2019Thank you very much for sponsoring our music program and buying us our beautiful new maroon storage cabinet! The auditorium has never looked better, and now we have enough room to safely store and lock up all of our music supplies.
We had a real problem finding the space to keep our equipment safe. Things were getting stepped on, lost, and broken. We have students that are responsible for taking out and putting away the music supplies we use in class, and our new cabinet has helped them (and their teacher!) become much more organized.”

Ultra HD Would Be Ultra Cool!
Funded May 9, 2019Thank you so much for supporting our music program, and for buying us our brand new 4k HD video camera! Our chorus has videos that are seen worldwide, and now the performances are captured in the quality they merit.
In addition to the beautiful video picture, the camera also features a special microphone adapter that has greatly improved the audio quality of the recordings. The kids have never looked and sounded better!
It is only through the generosity of donors like you, that we are able to bring our music students an optimal learning environment with all the trimmings!”

Funded Feb 28, 2019We are so grateful for all the love and support you've shown our students by funding our new wireless headphones. We have already made good use of the new device in our chorus program. Students have been able to actively participate in the editing process. The children were very excited to hear their work sounding so vibrant on the headphones and be able to have a more hands-on role in producing the videos. The wireless feature has come in particularly handy in making it easier to access multiple media sources. We truly cannot thank you enough!”

Funded Apr 28, 2019I really don't even have the words to thank all of you for making what I thought was a pipe-dream of a project, actually receive full funding! We have been eager to provide our students with the proper technology that they deserve as part of their educational resources. Unfortunately, our socio-economically challenged school does not have the equipment it needs to adequately provide the necessary twenty-first century skills that should be included in every academic institution. Our students were over the moon to hear that they would all be provided with their own iPads during their STEM instructional period. We are very much looking forward to using this technology to enhance our PS22 Chorus videos as well! I can't thank you enough for your unbelievable generosity.”
