  • Hungry Stomachs, Hungry Minds

    Funded Feb 25, 2025

    Thank you so very much for helping my students have snacks to keep their focus. Many of them come to school without lunch or have any food. They go all day without eating. Thanks so much for caring! They are all going to be so excited when everything gets delivered!”

  • Hungry Stomachs, Hungry Minds

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation. I was so excited to receive the packages of food and boxes of the drinks for the students. Your generosity is so very appreciated, especially when the students are getting anxious about the state exams coming up. It was a treat to be able to give them some chips and a water to help them. It is truly amazing what a simple thing, like a snack, can do to help cheer up someone who is feeling down on themselves and not very confident.

    The students were super excited when they saw all of the boxes and packages being brought into the classroom. They were acting like little kids on Christmas morning! So many of them come from homes where they do not have anything to eat for meals, let alone snacks to take to school. So, to have access to a variety of snacks and drinks was a truly special moment for them.

    Many of the teachers at my school were so impressed with the amount of food and drinks we received. It was so nice to be able to provide our hungry students with food to help them concentrate and pay attention to the work we are doing in class. Thank you so much for the generous donation”

  • A White Board Will Help Them Write Better!

    Funded Aug 25, 2018

    The resources that were donated have really added to our classroom and teaching ability! The whiteboard is being used all the time in multiple classrooms. We use it for student interaction, group work and one- on- one teaching. Our students loved the snacks and really helped motivate them in the classroom. They love using the whiteboard and sometimes argue over who gets to write on it!

    Our next steps in the classroom are to get the students ready and prepared for taking the ELA regents next week.

    Thank you so much for helping our students reach their goals!”

Using a white board will give them the hands on activities that they need for group activities, instead of using chart paper all time. For ecaplbe, when we have a group activity, they can use the white board and erase it to fix their work or adjust it instead of wasting another paper of chart paper and having to start over. Also, most of the students get here after 9am, after the cafeteria closes, so they haven't eaten and it is a great distraction. By supplying some snacks, i can have them focus on the work and not their empty bellies.
