  • Work That Lasts for Decades With an AMAZING Laminator!

    Funded Dec 1, 2020

    This laminator has helped a great deal in my classroom. Picture this, students being able to have the amazing experience of using dry erase markers to write and rewrite on resources laminated with this resource. I have converted tons of daily used materials into hard and long-lasting manipulatives. Students love to have the opportunity to touch, feel, and handle their work without being scared of tearing it. We are grateful for the opportunity that you have given us to count on this laminator for many many years to come.”

  • Teachers Pay Teachers Resources Galore!

    Funded Dec 2, 2020

    I want to start by thanking you for your generosity. This project has given me the possibility to search and find quality resources that target specifically the skills that my students need to learn based on the Texas Guidelines. With this project I have printed then laminated fun activities on rhyming, blending, beginning sounds, ending sounds. My students daily engage on hands-on activities that enhance their learning in an appealing way. Thank you for being part of their learning process. You are helping build the leaders of tomorrow.”

  • Promising Leaders Through Perfectly Sharpened Pencils!

    Funded Mar 2, 2020

    As a teacher who works in a district with limited resources, having the opportunity to provide my students with good quality and well sharpened pencils on a daily basis definitely makes a difference in their learning. I appreciate our efforts and your support towards this project. Thank you for being able to provide for teachers and students in need of high quality supplies. Please accept my humble thanks and know that your good deeds towards the community are very appreciated. A.X. Benavides students are blessed to enjoy their pencils!”

  • An Endless World of Colorful Resources!

    Funded Aug 11, 2020

    I am beyond grateful for the kindness showed towards my project. You have no idea how the HP Office Jet Pro 8035 has benefit my students. It has opened my world of delivering instruction in so many ways. I've already printed and laminated around 280 colored pages and been blessed enough to be able to laminate them and put them up in my classroom so students can visualize and learn new concepts each and every day. I hope you enjoy the pictures that I will send you so you can see how beautiful are the resources that I've printed from this device. Again, thanks for supporting teachers in these most difficult times.”

  • Nearpod Building the Leaders of Tomorrow!

    Funded Nov 1, 2019

    I want to take the time to thank you for your kind donations. With the collaboration of several of you my project was able to get funded. The impact that Nearpod will have for my students is beyond what words can explain. From projects to reading, from traveling through VR to testing, this program will open a world of opportunities for them. On behalf of my students and I we want you to know that we are grateful that people and companies like you/yours are supporting education. This is a commonly forgotten area by our governments and we usually do not get the funding from them that our students deserve. Through angels like you my classroom now has Nearpod that reaches 22 students on a daily basis.”

  • Books Nurturing the Leaders of Tomorrow!

    I am very excited about this project being funded and can't wait to deliver the good news to my students. I am beyond grateful for your support.

  • Pencils Galore to the Rescue!

    Funded Aug 14, 2019

    I want to start by explaining a little bit more about the reason why I submitted this project. Last school year I found myself spending a lot of money buying pencils for my students. Aside from that, every morning I would get to school earlier than the usual so I could be able to access the electrical pencil sharpener that is located in the copy machine room far away from my classroom. I am a writing teacher and as you can imagine I am in great need of refilling pencils and erasers in my classroom. Your funding has benefited my students in an amazing way. Not only my 22 students but since this year we are departmentalized your funding reaches about 77 students on a daily basis. I am beyond grateful for your contribution. It is like people like you that the world become a better place!”

  • 1 Computer at a Time Until We Reach 22!

    Funded Oct 9, 2018

    I am beyond grateful for the opportunity that you have provided for my students. They have already started to learn amazing and interesting things with the use of the laptop. Students send you their most sincere thanks as well as me. I have been able to witness the huge range of information that they've been able to access through this technological device.

    May everything that you do for education in our country pay back with well educated future leaders and successful citizens. Thanks again for being part of their journey, it is well appreciated.”

With this carpet my students will be able to experience a different learning environment where a gathering opportunity will allow them to share great ideas amongst themselves. I am trying to make my instruction as a more student directed approach instead of the traditional desks and teacher in the front way. My students learning will be impacted by their ability to think, turn, and talk more inside the classroom in a comfortable way. I am positive that my students will love the idea of sitting on a carpet that makes learning fun for them. It is hard to afford these items on a teachers' salary, thank you for your support!
