Let's Paint!
Funded Sep 21, 2021Thank you so much for your gracious donation to my little artists here in Carson, California! Simple Crayola colored pencils have been very much appreciated in my classroom as they always cheer when they get to use them rather than just crayons! The water colors have also been a great addition to our art supplies! We can't wait to use the canvas for a special project in the spring. I hope they will make paintings that their families will treasure! Some kids grow up saying to themselves that they just can't draw....Not my students! Thank you so much!”

Power Up With STEM!
Funded Oct 4, 2019Thank you so much for your generous donation to my class! My students were so excited to see what was inside the boxes! They were even more excited when they were actually able to use the electrical boards and to learn about electricity.
Students were arranged into pairs so that they could work collaboratively. I loved hearing all the academic and scientific words they were using when they were building the circuit boards! This really gave the students a great learning experience at reading and following instructions. Additionally, if something didn't work, they had to critically think how to solve it in order for it work. I loved how students were able to see concretely if something worked and did not work.
I think this donation of circuit boards have inspired my students to learn more about science and that science can be FUN!
Thank you!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Chevron Fuel Your School.A Million Books at Their Fingertips!
Funded Oct 17, 2018My students were so excited to see the boxes and boxes arrive! They knew that the contents of the packages were donated from generous people like you! They were even more excited to open them and discover that they were chromebooks, headphones, and a Google Home device!
My students get daily access to the chromebooks to use for reading and math. With the new chromebooks, my students are now able to access thousands and thousands of books! They just love reading! They log into epic.com which has such a grand variety of books at all different levels. This is their favorite part of the day! Their next favorite part of the day is using prodigy.com which also gives them the opportunity to practice math skills at their level!
The most exciting donation that the kids received but didn't now how to use was the Google Home device! They love asking the device how to spell words and for random facts!
Thank you so much for your generosity!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Chevron Fuel Your School.Think Outside The Box With A Rubik's Cube!
Funded Nov 1, 2017Thank you so much for your generous donation to my students! The students were so excited to see the packages when they arrived! They were even happier to know that there were people like you out there who chose to donate to our class project! The kids were thrilled to know that because of the donation, they would have more time to learn how to type, code, research, and have access to so many more things now that they have the Chromebooks. The students were also ecstatic to play with the Rubik's Cubes and so motivated to learn how to solve it! They are true problem solvers and your donation will definitely help them!
Thank you again for your kindness and generosity!!!”

Future Coders
Funded Dec 20, 2016Thank you for the four chromebooks, four headphones, and 15 flashdrives. The chromebooks have helped my students access the Internet to conduct research. It has also allowed my students to "code", learn keyboarding skills, and familiarize themselves with how technology works. These are all necessary skills in the 21st century.
The headphones have allowed my students to listen to any audio that is played without having it be a distraction to the rest of the class. My class and I are so thankful for the generous donation.
This donation will be able to reach many students over the next few years, so thank you again!”

Get Moving!
Funded Mar 31, 2016Dear Donors,
Thank you so much for your generous and thoughtful donation to my project! My students usually play the same game of handball and kickball for every recess. With this project funded, my students are able to have multiple games of basketball as well as jump rope games!
When the materials arrived, I opened all the packages right in front of my students! They were so excited to see the basketballs, jump ropes, and bean bags! We took the basketballs to PE right away! They got to dribble, shoot, and just play with them. It was great because all the students were able to be involved with very little waiting around time because of the amount of basketballs.
We can't wait to get even better with dribbling, shooting, and our coordination with the jump ropes!
Again thank you so much for your donation!”

Mrs. Lum
