• Adventures in Learning about Financial Literacy

  Funded Oct 7, 2024

  My resources that I requested, went to really good use. The students had the opportunity to create beautiful pieces of work with the markers, and colored pencils that were donated.

  One example was for November, the students designed dolls.

  We are especially appreciative of the Charles Swab Foundation. The impact of their generosity is far reaching and inspirational to my students. When they see what they can do with the materials given, it is just the beginning of a brand new and colorful world around them.”

  Funded Nov 29, 2022

  Thank you so very much for supporting my students. The donations were used in a

  variety of subjects across the curriculum. When the boxes arrived, the children gleamed

  with excitement and anticipation.

  The crayons were delivered first, most of my students never have had their own

  crayons. One of my students started crying when she received her very own crayons.

  We worked on making colorful brochures to visit Mexico. The students, especially,

  loved the magnetic and STEM games for Science.”

• Enriching Students Through Puppetry

  Funded Nov 27, 2017

  My students were so excited when the puppets arrived. They were so eager to role-play

  different scenarios. An important part of my classroom is building self-esteem, instilling

  important values and moral ethics, and the use of the puppets help create the perfect setting.

  The students brainstorm different scenarios, then write a story. Then, the students proceed

  to act out different values. One scenario would be where the students focus on gratitude.

  They come up with a story centered around the puppets acting out a story of gratitude.

  Afterwards, the students show illustrations of the puppets showing gratitude. We thank all

  that helped bring my plan to life. We are forever grateful. Thank you so much for your

  generosity.”

  Thank you so very much for all the supplies. My students and I love everything. As a teacher of 27 years, it is always so endearing to me, for people whom are striving to make everything possible to help create an enriching, and learning environment. All the sponsors of this amazing corporation have made it possible for my students to have resources, otherwise, they would have not had access to this year.

It opened a whole new door to their learning and creativity . We have been working in our journals with illustrations that have come alive because of these resources .
