  Funded Nov 21, 2024

  Thank you for your generous donation! The magnetic blocks that you profided for my class have been a game changer. We play with them every single day! The children are creating structures, bridges, houses, and soccer fields with our new blocks. I am in awe of

  their creativity and I wish you could see them in action!

  I love connecting children with educational toys that help them develop strong STEM skills. Your thoughtful donation made that possible. I am so thankful and the children are simply thrilled with our new blocks!”

• It's Clean Up Time!

  Funded Jan 9, 2024

  Thank you for your generous donation! We were in desperate need of cleaning supplies. Your generous donation will help keep my young students clean and safe. The children are learning to care for their own space by wiping down tables and chairs and cleaning up spills.

  Thank you for supporting teachers. It's makes our job so much easier when we have a supportive community to count on when we are in need! The students did not care that they were opening cleaning supplies, they were so excited to get packages!”

  Funded Dec 17, 2023

  Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I am so thrilled that I am going to be able to provide my students with quality books! We are building a library for my young readers- one book at a time! Your generosity is remarkable!

  I wish you could have heard the squeals of delight when the children opened the boxes with the books. They were thrilled! They all sat around on the carpet and read through their new books. They asked if they could take them home and I was so thrilled to be able to answer yes!”

• Little Learners Go Back to School!

  Funded Aug 18, 2023

  Thank you so much for your generous donations! I am looking forward to a wonderful year! My little learners are thriving in a well stocked classroom. The extra clothes have already come in handy. The folders and classroom supplies are used each day.

  The dry erase makers with built in erasers have become a class favorite. We are practicing letters and will move on to first names soon. The ability to quickly fix mistakes make dry erase boards and markers a priceless tool in pre-K! I appreciate you all so much!”

• Little Summer Readers

  Funded Apr 29, 2023

  Thank you for your generous and impactful donation! I was able to purchase two of our favorite classroom books for each child to take home. My goal this year was to build a home library for my students. Between grants and donations, each of my students received 10 high quality books this year.

  It's so important for our students to have books in their homes. Often when I read a book, students will want to take the book home. I believe by providing these special stories for the children, we are cultivating a love of reading that hopefully will last a lifetime.”

• Little Summer Readers

  Funded May 9, 2022

  My little friends were thrilled with their new books! They love to take books home and were so excited when they realized that they could keep their new books! Thank you for your generous donation! I believe that early literacy is the foundation for success in school. Story time is such an important part of our day. Little children love to be read to and they like to explore books independently. I wanted the children to have access to their favorite books at home. You helped create a home library for 17 students! The impact is remarkable!

  Thank you again for your generosity and commitment to our young learners.”

• Little Readers

  Funded Nov 16, 2021

  This gift was pure magic! The children loved receiving books of their own to take home. We read every day in school. The children are exposed to all types of books in the classroom yet would often tell me that they do not have books at home or they want to bring classroom books home. That is always such a heartbreaker because we want to send books home but cannot lend classroom books.

  This project has allowed each child to start their own library at home. The children love that they have the same books at home as we have a school. I want my students to be life long readers. Gifting my students quality books is a great start. Thank you for your most generous and considerate gift.”
