• Keeping Warm While Playing

  Funded Jan 22, 2025

  On behalf of our entire classroom, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your generous donation of jackets, scarves, and mittens. Your kindness has made such a meaningful difference in our students' lives.

  Thanks to your thoughtful gifts, our students were able to stay warm and cozy all winter long. They were absolutely thrilled to be able to go outside and play, no matter how chilly it was! The joy on their faces as they bundled up and headed out for recess was truly priceless.

  We are so grateful for your continued support—it means the world to us. Your generosity helps us create a safe, happy, and nurturing environment where our students can learn, grow, and enjoy every season to the fullest.”

• Teachers Pay Teachers

  Funded Aug 15, 2023

  With your donation I was able to find and implement a new science curriculum. My school, unfortunately, does not provide a science curriculum.

Which is great for me and the students! Thank you so much for your continued support to my classroom. Without donorschoose, my classroom would not be the thriving classroom that it is today!”
