• Printer Ink Needed for My Classroom!

  Funded Aug 15, 2024

  Thank you so much for your very generous donation of printer ink! As you know, printer ink is expensive. And in my classroom, we go through quite a bit of it when we publish all our different writing pieces. Plus, the kids love to add graphics to their published pieces to make their writing more interesting to read, which takes up even more ink. So again thank you so much for making this happen for our classroom. We appreciate your generosity!”

• Basic Classroom Supplies Needed for Student Success!

  Funded Aug 2, 2023

  Thank you for your generous donation to my classroom. Having brand new classroom supplies to start off the school year and to utilize throughout the school was critical to the success of my students. They enjoyed having brand new supplies at the beginning of the school year. They took care of them alo year long, and ant the end of the school year, they took them home to further use over the summer. because these supplies were brand new, they lasted all year long, which is awesome! Again, many many thanks for your generous donation.”

• Printer Ink, Please!

  Funded Oct 16, 2023

  Thank you so much for the Epson printer ink!! This resource is invaluable in my classroom as we love to publish all of our writing from our writers workshop program. And of course the kids like to add pictures to their writing, which sometimes takes up quite a bit ink.

  Please take a look at the pictures that are accompanying this thank you letter. We were able to publish our literary essays and also publish our personal narratives. Currently, we are in the process of publishing our opinion essays which will also get some space on the classroom bulletin boards.

  Again, I appreciate the donation of the ink to my classroom. It is going to great use!!!”

• Unplug and Play Board Games!!

  Funded Jun 22, 2023

  I recently received the items from my "Unplug and Play Board Games" project. Thank you very much for donating these fun board games and engaging card games to my classroom. Because of your generous donation, I was able create a "games closet" that we can access on those rainy days throughout the school year, and those free-time days at the end of the school year. I intend to use these board games & card games when permitted, to show my students that you don't need hi-tech in order to be entertained. Old-fashioned board games and card games are way better than sitting on a device, hands down! Thank you again!!! Much appreciated!!!”

• STEAM Resources in Need!

  Funded Dec 31, 2022

  Thank you very much for the Teachers Pay Teachers gift card of $100.

  We have been putting it to great use. We downloaded fun science activities that taught us about the Water Cycle and our Solar System. The activities were engaging, interactive, and hands-on! Which of course, the students loved.

  We still have some money left on the gift card, so we plan to use it for an upcoming Mother's Day project and an upcoming End Of School Year Yearbook.

  Once again, thank you for the donation. We are having alot of fun learning & doing due to your generosity.”

• In Desperate Need of Pencil Boxes!

  Funded Apr 6, 2023

  Thank you for this generous donation. Before your pencil boxes showed up, we were using old LAUSD cardboard boxes which were torn, tattered, and broken.

  When the brand new plastic pencil boxes that you ordered arrived in the classroom, my students were so excited and thrilled to have a new box to put their pens, pencils, and crayons in.

  The plastic boxes you donated are much more durable than the LAUSD ones we were using, and these will last much longer. So thank you for very much!

  My students and I appreciate your generosity.”

• Go Away Germs!

  Funded Dec 4, 2022

  Thank you very much for the variety of products you donated to my classroom.

  We are making good use of the Clorox wipes & hand soap. We are using the wipes daily to clean off our desks at the end of the day. As well as washing our hands periodically with the hand soap you provided.

  In addition, the face masks are being used daily. Because of the large amount of masks you donated, my students are able to change their masks several times a day once they feel that they are soiled. Also, the Kleenex tissues are being used frequently as we have many runny noses during this time of year.

  My students and I can't thank you enough for the useful donations for our classroom. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and generosity.”
