  • Warming Up Some Positive Reinforcement

    Funded Dec 15, 2024

    Happy Holidays! I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and support. During the month of December, we had over 50 students learn how to make their own shirts during lunch and afterschool. They loved the experience, but it was a tedious process with only one iron to share. Your generosity will be an absolute game changer. I will happily show other club advisors how to make shirts & will share your wonderful gift with them. I will create a vinyl message on the machine reminding all that use it that it was a gift from amazing, kind donors :). Many thanks and I wish you health, happiness, & prosperity in the New Year. Stay amazing - the world needs more people like you. So grateful for your support.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Silverman

  • Field of Honor for Memorial Day

    Funded Aug 28, 2024

    I cannot thank you enough. I am truly humbled by your kindness & generosity. I am so excited to share this update with our students. You are incredible & I appreciate the time you took to help our school. With each year, we will be reminded of the kindness all of you exhibited & will make sure to note it during our annual commemoration of our nation’s fallen heroes. Thank you for affording us the opportunity to bring this experience to our school and community. Your support helps make the world a better place. Thank you so very much.”

  • Learning about the Holocaust with Night (book)

    Funded Apr 7, 2022

    Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. In 10th grade World History classes, we learn about the Holocaust, World War II, totalitarian dictatorships, human rights violations, and many other topics. I appreciate that you helped provide a class set of Night to share with my students. Students had a deeper understanding upon reading Night and it led to many rich discussions in class. I was even able to share some of our books with an English teacher as well who read this book with her students.

    Many thanks for your support of our classroom. I shared with my classes that these books were provided by so many thoughtful individuals. They were very touched to be supported by you. Some students that don't read leisurely were drawn to this book and asked many questions.

    Words cannot express deeply enough our sincere appreciation for your generosity. With each passing year, I will share with my students how these books were placed in their hands .... the kindness of complete strangers that wanted to give them the opportunity to travel to different times/places/histories via a book and to learn about experiences others endured.”

  • Life Skills + New Technology + Creativity = Fun Crafts

    Funded Mar 25, 2022

    Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to make more club t-shirts for our members. I only had 1 machine that I purchased and it was used by more than 100 members. It was hard to ensure each student could make an item since we were limited to 1 machine. Having another machine affords us more hands-on time. More members have been able to use this machine and have the opportunity to make their own creations. Our club members even helped a recent event at our school by making free t-shirts for their talent show student volunteers to wear. Your generosity drove our generosity.

    My students were very excited to see this machine. It is capable of creating even more products and we are excited try new projects ahead with wood too. Many have stayed after school and during their lunch this week to learn how to use the software and machine. Some students have become so familiar with both that they are now assisting first time users :).

    I cannot convey enough how much your kindness is appreciated. You helped me provide students with new skills, interests, and pride, and for that, I thank you :).”
