Healing Hunger Year Round
Funded May 4, 2017Let me start by saying thank you! Thank you for your kindness. Thank you for your generosity. Thank you for caring about my students and my school! Your kindness means more to me than you will ever truly know.
With your donation you are providing food for my students this summer. You are providing them with a sense of security in knowing that they will wake up to a breakfast that they can prepare themselves. They are going to bed with a full stomach.
Being truly hungry is something that most people will not experience in their lifetime but my students have and do. Your kindness will keep them from experiencing this for a least a few weeks this summer while they are away from school. Every Day will be a little better for them because of what you have done for them this year.
Thank you again for having a kind and caring heart. You will never be forgotten!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Life Essentials Supporters and 5 other donors.Encouraging Literacy With A New Classroom Library!
Funded Oct 31, 2015Thank you so much for your very generous donation to my classroom! My students are truly loving have all of these leveled books, pillows, and centers in our room. Their reading time has really become a time that they enjoy and look forward to. They are always asking "Can I use the pillow now?" or "When do I get to get a new book?" It's amazing to see how much their attitudes towards reading have changed in such a short period of time.
Our classroom reading block has become so much more successful since receiving our books and games. I have been able to set up centers that will benefit each and every student at their own learning and reading levels as well as to teach them about informational topics using books that they can read on their own without feeling stressed out due to the amount of unknown words in their grade level books.
I hope that you know how much you have helped my students! You have not only helped this year's group of students but also every student that enters my classroom from now on. Thank you again for all that you did for us. I will forever be thankful for the gift of knowledge that you are giving my students.”

21st Century Learners!
Funded Oct 22, 2013Thank you so much for giving my students the opportunity to have such wonderful resources in our classroom! The students were thrilled to have our new ipad and Microsoft Surface. We have been using these resources daily in many ways. We use them during center time, during one-on-one student-teacher time, and during independent reading time. The student are able to access many books, websites, and apps to help them increase their reading fluency and comprehension. These two resources have given me to opportunity to boost my own teaching and my students' learning. You have provided me with ways to incorporate technology into our classroom. You've given me the resources to help students self-monitor their reading comprehension and fluency and set goals to become better readers. You have also given me the resources to help my students bloom into the wonderful readers that I knew they could be.
Thank you again for your donations and for helping my students when I couldn't. Your generosity will not be forgotten by my students or myself!”
