  • You Can Buy It With Kindness

    Funded Sep 26, 2024

    I am very happy that this project has brought so much excitement into our learning community. My hope is that my young learners appreciate each other and learn that kindness brings joy and positivity to their lives. First of all I am grateful for the books, because the rhythm of this colorful book is contagious. "Brown Bear What Do You See," is our favorite book and we read it every day! Now, every child can hold their own copy. How amazing is that! The treasure box is very rewarding and special, and the students are working hard to stay in the kindness jar. This project motivates us all. Thank you.”

    I am so happy to have this amazing speaker. Hooray, my students love to sing and dance! My young students come to school ready to learn.

This speaker is just wonderful and perfect for my students. We are making sure it stays safe so it can last longer than the last one.

They come from low income families, and most of them are second language learners. They attend an all day program at a primary center in California. My students love books, singing, dancing and play time. Learning can be a challenge for the little ones, but they all show up to school every day.
