• Eyes on the Prize With These School Supplies

  Funded Jul 27, 2020

  Thanks to all of your donations, my classroom is filled with supplies that help my students stay organized. Thanks to the folders, notebooks, cleaning supplies, and crayons you donated to our classroom my students have everything they need to succeed this year.

  The New York City Department of Education suffered tremendous budget cuts due to the coronavirus pandemic. It was no longer possible for our school to provide the learning materials they had in previous years. Thanks to all of you, I was able to supply all the materials that my students needed this school year. This project helped to alleviate the financial burden to families during this difficult time. Thank you all so much!”

• Distance Learning Care Package

  Funded May 15, 2020

  After noticing that many students didn't have access to supplies such as gloves and masks, you came to the rescue. After hearing that they did not have access to the proper school supplies needed for remote learning, you were there to save the day. Thanks to all of you, we were able to provide each child with supplies, such as physical books to read to give them a break from the computer screen, and art materials. But most importantly, I you supplied their families with PPE so that they felt safe when they went outside to get food.

  Thank you for always support my students. Your generosity truly made a huge difference in their lives.”

• You've Got Mail

  Funded Jun 5, 2020

  I can't thank you enough for your donations to this project. After fundraising enough money to purchase the items for the summer care packages, I realized I needed to continue raising money for the shipping costs. I wanted to get all the materials shipped to my house so I could arrange a personal care package for each student and attach a hand written card.

  Thanks to all of you, I was able to ship 30 care packages to my students in the Bronx.

  Your generosity allowed me to deliver these packages in the mail to avoid the spread of Covid-19. Additionally, with the left over stamps I was able to be pen pals with my students over the summer!

  I am forever grateful for your donations to this project. ”

• Wobble While You Work

  Funded Aug 13, 2019

  I can't thank you enough for your donations to this project. I have so many wiggly students this year that focus exponentially better on their new flexible seating cushions. Some of the cushions have been assigned to certain students permanently, while other cushions are used as part of our table points reward system. Without your help I would not have been able to supply this much needed support to my students. I am grateful to each and every one of you for helping my students be the best learners they can be!”
