    Funded Mar 11, 2025

    Wow! I am so incredibly grateful for your generous contribution to our Pre-K classroom. The children will be beyond excited to use their new rest mats during rest time! Your kindness and support mean the world to us. Thank you so much for making a difference in their lives!”

    With gratitude,

  • Enhance Our Learning Through Vibrant Color

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    We simply cannot thank you enough for your thoughtful and generous donation of a colored printer and ink for our preschool classes. It is heartwarming to know that there are kind souls out there who care about the education and happiness of our young students. Your generosity has truly brightened our days and brought smiles to the faces of us pre-k teachers and pre-k children.

    The vibrant and engaging visuals produced by the printer have brought our lesson plans to life in a whole new way. Whether we are creating flashcards, worksheets, or fun art projects, the colorful prints have captured the attention and imagination of our preschoolers like never before.

    Through the use of colorful prints, we have been able to enhance the learning process and make educational concepts more easily understandable and memorable for our young students. It has truly enriched our classroom environment and inspired creativity in our little ones.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Punger

  • Meet Pre-K at the Carpet!

    Funded Jan 18, 2023

    We cannot thank you enough for your contribution towards our "Meet Pre-K at the Carpet" project. When the rug was delivered, the students were so excited to have a clearly defined area in which to sit during large group learning time.

    This has given us such a brighter and more comfortable area to spend our morning meetings for calendar, a place for reading stories, learning, and movement allowing students to collaborate and grow. This rug has been a great addition to my classroom and I am looking forward to using for many years to come. Thank you so much again for your help in funding this rug.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Punger

A key part of an effective classroom and learning is modeling. An easel is the perfect classroom tool for this. The students will have easy access, and it will keep them engaged during lessons. This easel is a magnetic whiteboard, can hold anchor charts, and has a storage shelf for all necessary supplies. This will benefit many lessons and subjects throughout the day! This is a convenient way to incorporate modeled writing and record math problem solutions. We can manipulate magnetic letters and numbers with the easel, as well as hang chart paper and posters. The easel can be used for independent or group center-work as well. This easel is much-needed. Having a mobile easel will allow our class to share, work, and learn from each other!
