  • Students in Need, Deserves a Happy Holiday!

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    My students were so delighted to receive their bag filled with treats and presents. What a joy to make every girl and boy in my class smile from ear to ear. This precious moment would not be made possible without thoughtful and caring individuals such as you.

    I know that this is an especially busy time of the year, and for you to take a moment to give so graciously of your love, time and money, to children that you don't know is priceless.

    Please know that their parents and I both send warm thanks to you. May kindness be returned to you, in the same way that it was given.”

  • Time For Kids Magazine

    Funded Jan 23, 2023

    Thank you for bringing the world to our doorsteps. These children are enjoying learning about life outside of the Bronx. Time For Kids is the perfect way to introduce them to timely news in a way that they can digest and understand.

    My youngsters love looking at the vibrant photos. They learn so much by examining and discussing the pictures. Being able to read and understand the topic builds up their confidence.

    When we are done reading the magazines in class, students enjoy taking them home and discussing what they learned with their families.

    You are the best for giving so much care and consideration to these little deserving humans!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Jones

  • Grumbling Tummies, Need Something Yummy!

    Funded Apr 6, 2023

    Thank you so much for these items. I wish you could've heard the squeals of delight the children let out, when they saw their sweet and delicious treats. Random acts of kindness is what this world needs, more than ever. May kindness be returned to you, in the same way that it was given!

    I so appreciate the time and effort that you took to reach out and care for someone less fortunate than yourself. These students have suffered so much in their short lives. Although the world has moved on from the COVID epidemic...this community has not. These families are still suffering emotionally, financially and educationally.

    It is so satisfying to know that I can teach my little ones, knowing that they won't be distracted by rumbling tummies from hunger.”

  • A Rainbow of Possibilities!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you so much for providing my students with basic supplies that they need to thrive this school year. These children live in an area that is riddle with problems. Their socio-economic status leaves them wanting for the most basic necessities. Your generosity and warmth really make it possible for these students to have what they need to succeed.

    The parents of these children often work 2 to 3 jobs just to make ends meet. Some of them, are in school themselves. Many of them, do not speak English.

    By helping to give these youngsters basic school supplies, you are shaping their education and the future.”

  • It's No Surprise, We Need to Sanitize!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you so much for helping to keep these children safe, healthy and happy. Your donation helped to provide a safe and welcoming space for my students to thrive. It is so wonderful to know that people like you are out there and care.

    These students live in an area that's riddle with poverty and crime. School is often their only place for security. So, when one of them is out of school because they are ill; they are often not getting a meal.

    Providing a germ free classroom, allows my little ones to stay healthy and reduces absences due to sickness!”

  • It's That Simple...We Need Pencils!

    Funded Aug 1, 2022

    Thank you so much for your generosity! My students were so excited to see all their shiny new school supplies, to start the year off right. I can't tell you how excited they were to open new crayon boxes, pencils, folders and so much more.

    I wish you could've seen the relief on the parents faces as well. They were delighted to have at least (1) burden lifted off their shoulders. Many of them wanted me to express their gratitude to you.

    With your sweet gift, my students will start smart! They will have all the tools they need to make learning within reach. And I could not have done it without you. May kindness be returned to you...in the same way that it was given,”

  • Let's Get It Write!

    Funded Nov 28, 2021

    Thank you so much, Mr. Price for your care and consideration towards these deserving young scholars! These past few years have hit our community hard. And children always suffer the most during difficult times.

    These note books are a bright spot for them because they have witness so much and have stories to tell. Even my students, who are still learning how to string letters together to form words. Enjoy drawing a picture and speaking their stories into existence.

    These journals are like therapy for my young learners. They now get to express, how they are feeling in a safe and comfortable space. You'll never know how your generosity impacted so many little hearts. May kindness be returned to you in the same way that it was given. The fact that you have a personal connection to our little school in the Bronx, made this even more meaningful. Again, I thank you!”

  • It's a Simple Ask, We N Need Masks!!!

    Funded Sep 18, 2021

    Thank you so much for your generosity! Our school has been hit hard by this new COVID-19 variant, Omicron. Both staff and students are sick and testing positive at alarming rates.

    Research has shown that students between the ages of 5-11 are the population getting hit and hospitalized the hardest during this latest surge. My little first graders being 6 years old fall right in the middle of that range.

    The masks that you gifted my class, plays a huge part in keeping them safe and healthy! It is a wonderful feeling to be able to provide a clean mask to a child whenever they need it. Your donation is a life saver in every sense of the word and I thank you!”

My students are caring, friendly, multicultural & eager to learn! They do not let their circumstances limit their expectations. These children are coming from homes where books are not a priority. Money for food and life's basic necessities are far more important for these families than books. This is especially disheartening because most of these children would thrive, given the right opportunity. Children in this area start school at a 2 1/2 year gap behind most children attending 1st Grade in the USA. If students had learning materials, books and supplies at home, this would help to close the gap. Please help me to provide hands on materials for students in this high poverty area. Your generosity will benefit these students for years to come. Research has shown that the primary grades are the most important in a child's academic life. Your donation will help to build a strong foundation for these young learners.
