  • The Learning Environment Has Changed

    Funded Sep 30, 2020

    I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Remote learning and teaching would have not been able to glow as much as it did and continues to do as a result of your donation. You helped students in this great time of need and you helped me help them better as well.

    Students were not only excite to use the Mobile white board initially in the classroom, but then see being used when we went fully remote. They instantly recognized the board in zoom and it was as iff a piece of their classroom has traveled home with them. Their faces lit up and enjoyed watching countless lessons being taught on it.

    The white board has saved me countless times. I took it home with me and used it to teach remotely. I still use it every day and will continue to use it for the years to come. I really like how well built it is. It's clear background makes it easier for students to see my lesson live., as well.

    I thank you so much for your generosity and for choosing my project to be funded. My students and I are extremely thankful.”

  • Help Us Get Started

    Funded Sep 26, 2017

    Thank you so much for the ergonomic pencils, coloring pencils, the pencil sharpener and the magnetic dry erase markers. They have helped us move forward with some of our individual and classroom goals.

    Some students are enjoying the ease of the pencil grip with the large pencils, while some others are showing off their colorful drawings they can now create with the new coloring pencils. We are all thankful for the magnetic dry erase markets, because we can just place them anywhere on the blackboard. The pencil sharpener has been a life savor and children are eager to be chosen as the "master sharpener" for the week.

    The benefits are many and so is our appreciation for your generous donations to our classroom. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”

  • Kindergarten Needs Supplies

    Funded Nov 30, 2009

    I want to truly thank you for the wonderful thing you donated to my students.

    When I initially told my students that we are being specially selected to receive a wonderful gift from wonderful and generous people, they felt pretty special. They were thrilled to hear what they received and even more thrilled to start using the wonderful supplies you sent to them.

    When we first opened the box of crayons we thanked each and everyone of you and mentioned your name in gratitude. Children wrote stories about you.

    One of my students one day during an art class drew several people in his paper and when I conferred with him I asked him about the people in the picture. He was excited to say that these are the people that gave us the supplies. It was truly touching and a wonderful experience. It was also a teachable moment for me. I used your wonderful act to share with children and explain to what they may be doing one day for other students in this community and around the world.

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Gorvokaj

  • Inspiring Little Writers

    Funded Feb 6, 2009

    Thank you so much for the beautiful Book Binding machine and the necessary materials.

    Your donation not only excited me as a teacher but the students, as well. You made a donation that will last and continue to be used by the future classes. You made sure me publish those wonderful stories we love to write. I wish you could have seen their excitement and listen to their amazing stories. Hopefully the pictures we are sending will provide a glimpse of the work we put in.

    The children are very thankful too, and they tired to thank you the best they could, but please excuse them since they are still very young and trying to learn how to write.

    Again thank you so much.”

    Ms. Gorvokaj

    Thank you so much for the wonderful school supplies you donated to us.

    I am more than happy to receive this donation at this difficult time in our economy. We have truly felt it at our school and these supplies are very much needed and appreciated.

    I cannot wait to tell the good news to the children and receive these supplies so we can begin the many projects we have been putting aside due to the lack of necessary materials needed.

    Again thank you so much”

  • Science Supplies and More Supplies

    Funded Oct 17, 2007

    Wow! I am thrilled to learn about all the supplies that you have donated to us. I cannot wait to share this with my students.

    We started the school year without these supplies but now I cannot wait to start using them and completing some of the fun projects that I planned. Finally the scissors will be sized for the little hands, the folders are color-coded the way we need them, and each student will get their own pencil, glue stick and highlighter. this will make a world of difference.

    Thank you so much for your generosity.

    I am excited..”

  • First Grade Scientists NEED Science Journals

    Funded Oct 1, 2007

    I am so excited about the journals you donated to us. I just found out and I cannot wait to share this with my kindergarten students--I am sure they will be just as excited as I am, if not more.

    This is the second year we were fortunate to receive journals from donors like you. Thank you so much for extending your hand and helping brighten the paths of our future scientists.

    I cannot wait to start using the journals with students who are now starting to write, record data and sketch.

    Thank you so much”

Every single day of a school year is filled with work, projects and things that need to be done, but sometimes they have to be delayed or even canceled altogether because of the lack of supplies. I teach fourth grade and I love doing what I do, but at times I must say that I wish I was able to do even more if I had all the supplies that I need for my students.
