  • Starting and Stocking a School Store

    Funded Jan 19, 2024

    My students are eternally grateful for your donations. Students were able to see that good behavior pays off. It gave them their first real-world experiences with business operations, marketing, inventory, cash exchanges, and sales. Staff/Teachers can maximize the effectiveness of our Class Dojo based incentive system by recognizing students anywhere, any time. Awarding points is as easy as selecting one or more students within the app. Points accumulate in student accounts automatically and stay there until the student uses them to purchase an incentive. No lost tokens and our staff feel like they are empowered within their own classroom. Thanks for bringing our initiative to life!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Terrell Smith

  • Capturing the Future Through Emotional Intelligence

    Funded Sep 26, 2022

    I can't begin to express how much your donations mean to my students. Because of you my students are on the road to understanding and managing their emotions better. The kids are so excited to share moments with me. Your donations allow the students to set and achieve positive goals; learn, observe and model empathy; establish and maintain positive relationships; and make responsible decisions. I am currently working on a project that will help students with endurance and patience. Thanks for supporting our social emotional journey.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Terrell Smith

    This classroom project was brought to life by Equitable Foundation.
