  Funded Jul 16, 2024

  I am so excited and grateful. Teaching is my passion, and I want to give the world to my students. Your generous donation to help me option this wonderful program is a game changer. It will allow to me provide supplemental assistance to all of my students--not just for my class, but I can use this resource to help them with skills needed in a variety of classes. This will definitely be useful for my students since they are in a dual enrollment program and are taking college classes while still in high school.

  You are amazing. I cannot thank you enough! When I told my students that you helped fund this online program, they were so happy. Thank you so much! This means so much to me.”

• Staying Safe as Seasons Change

  Funded Sep 16, 2023

  I don't know about you, but I am still a little shaken by COVID-19 and its impact on our health--physically, emotionally, and mentally. Having these supplies gives me peace of mind. As the seasons change, we tend get have more coughs and sneezes. In Mississippi, beautiful plants bloom all year round, so that means allergies are affected all year long.

  I thank you for assisting me in caring for the needs of my students. We have plenty of supplies to last for a while. Your kindness is an inspiration. I always tell my students about the donors and how they should follow your lead and give back to others. Thank you! I appreciate your support.”

• Help Us Refresh, Refuel, and Rejuvenate.

  Funded Sep 14, 2023

  You just don't know how much I appreciate your kindness, generous spirit, and support. The cases of water are essential since clean drinking water is an issue in our city. I feel really good to have water readily available for all of my students. It keeps things equitable because there are a number of them who cannot afford drinks from the vending machine.

  My students are very appreciative. After explaining that wonderful people donated money for our water, my students were amazed. This gave me the opportunity to emphasize how so many people appreciate teachers as my students are aspiring teachers. I try to instill in them the spirit of paying it forward. Thank you for helping me spread love.”

• Crafting Enhances Creativity and Critical Thinking

  Funded Aug 3, 2023

  You have created creative monsters! The kids are so excited to have crafting equipment and supplies. Your donation has helped me mix by love of crafting with teachable moments. Every single student is engaged. I modeled how to make a custom t-shirt. After weeding out one sheet of vinyl, I asked to see if anyone wanted to try. Everyone volunteered!

  I cannot wait to show them how to create more items in the future. Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and support. People like you keep my zeal for teaching and learning. Thank you. May God bless you.”

• Clean Water & Snacks For Testing Season

  Funded Feb 8, 2023

  First of all, God bless you! Your kindness gives me the motivation to keep advocating for young people. I wish I could hug and high five each one of you. Thank you so much!

  My students were so excited when I presented them with care packages that included the items you helped me get. Testing is so stressful, so I love when I can ease their anxiety. The bottled water and snacks kept them focused and motivated. In fact, I was able to share my donated items with my team teachers so the entire grade level benefited. We all thank you.”

• Simply: We Need Clean Drinking Water

  Funded Jan 29, 2023

  It's hard to find the right words to convey how appreciative I am. I was a little embarrassed to ask for water. It's shameful that our city and state officials are doing more arguing than repairing the city's water system. In the meantime, a basic human need is being neglected.

  As a teacher, I know just how important physical health is connected with cognitive thinking. Your donation touched my heart. Look at the kids faces in the pictures that I am sharing. They were so happy! Now that spring is approaching and the weather is warming up, I feel good about making sure my learning environment is refreshing for all of my students.”

• Lights! Action! Wait…We Need Cameras

  Funded Jan 28, 2023

  It's hard to express the right words to convey my appreciation for the support that I receive as a teacher. I absolutely love my job. I think learning should be fun and meaningful. That's why I volunteer to sponsor clubs. My novice yearbook club is doing an amazing job with the little we have. You helping us obtain a professional grade camera is a blessing. My lead photographer, a Junior with a photography background, is over the moon! He has arranged to give us lessons on how to effectively work and take care of the camera. We are so excited! Thank you so much! This means the world to me.”

• Reading Stories that Represent Me

  Funded Oct 5, 2022

  One of my greatest joys is igniting a love of reading to my students. Your kindness in helping me obtain a class set of these novels has afforded me with this opportunity. The plot, setting, and characters will give me a chance to make real-world connections and have deep discussions.

  I showed my students the books and explained what they are about. They were so excited! We are wrapping up a book now, but we cannot wait to start this one. I'm so grateful. May God continue to bless you! My heart is full!”

• Lysol Leads to Learning!

  Funded Aug 5, 2022

  I read your encouraging message to my students. I had an "unbox reveal" to show them what we received to help us stay safe this school year. They cheered and were amazed that people who didn't know them personally cared enough to help them. This led to a great conversation on how we can imitate your generosity and give back to others. That conversation still gives me goosebumps. This type of teaching is priceless,, and I owe this all to you.

  Thank you so much for everything. Having these name-brand supplies are so necessary. We are on a mission to stay safe as we master the English II standards this year! Thank you so much.”
