New Year, New Supplies!
Funded Jul 27, 2024Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. With your support, my classroom was stocked and ready to welcome 24 new students. It always feels great to inform families that their students already have the supplies that they need to be successful and start the year off right!
The folders, pencil boxes, pencils and stickers were welcomed with open arms and big smiles on the first day of school. These materials are essential in creating an organized and effective classroom. The stickers (scratch and sniff of course) are just the cherry on top and add a little fun to our day. Who doesn't like a sticker :)
These children are eager and excited to learn and come in each day curious about what they will learn next. We have been in school almost 2 whole months, and these kids are making so much progress.
Thank you again for supporting my classroom and being a champion of education.”

Becoming Authors! Bringing Book Making to Kindergarten
Funded May 8, 2023I cannot thank you enough for you generosity in helping my class receive the book binding machine. My class is so excited to know that throughout the school year that their writing will become real books that they can take home and share with their families.
As a teacher, I am so lucky to have this resource that allows me to"publish" my students work and give them and their families books that will have for years. These books will stay with them and be a fond memory of their kindergarten experience.
Thank you for supporting me and my students.
Like I say to my kids..."kiss your brains!"”

Funded Sep 25, 2021It with your support that I was able to provide my students with flexible seating and workstations for our classroom. These workstations have made our classroom truly feel like a home! The children now have a cozy space with they can comfortably work. It is wonderful to look around the classroom and see my students hard at work in an environment that is welcoming and inspires learning. This classroom is a second home to these students, and with the addition of these seats and workstations, I have been able to create a learning environment that I have always dreamed of for my students.
The students absolutely love these seats and workspaces. They create a warm space where they can collaborate with their peers, work individually or just relax after a long day of learning. We cannot thank you enough! Happy Holidays from our classroom :)”

Funded Sep 18, 2020I am truly grateful for you generosity. This year has been so difficult in so many ways for both educators and students. We are reinventing how we teach, finding new ways to deliver lessons and materials and are working tirelessly to form connections with our students remotely.
In the upcoming month my students will be returning to school for the first time. It is with the help of your donation that I am able to provide them with the tools necessary to be successful as well as provide a safe environment that they can learn in.
I cannot wait to see my students faces when they receive their in school materials for the first time. For many of these children, this will be their first time in a classroom. I am so lucky that I can provide the children with materials that will not only excite them, but also protect them in this new school environment.”

Extra! Extra! Help Me Bring Technology to the Coolest Class
Funded Aug 22, 2019Thank you for your generous donation! Your donation has allowed me to bring technology to my classroom. This technology allows my students to use the skills they are learning in the classroom and apply them in a fun and exciting way. With the help of this technology, I have seen my students make progress in all areas of learning.
The programs on the tablets that these students are using are an added enrichment to our classroom. Many of these students do not have access to technology at home. By providing them time on devices and technology here at school, we are giving them the exposure they need to current technology, thus keeping them competitive with their peers in other communities.
We love our new tablets and technology center. These resources have improved my classroom in so many ways. For my ELL learners, I am able to provide visual and auditory supports that allow them to thrive in the classroom setting. For all the students, these tablets provide fun!”

"A Book Is A Dream You Hold In Your Hands"
Funded Mar 18, 2019With the help of your generous donation I have been able to provide my students with the gift of reading. Your donation enabled me to create a classroom library where all my children could access books and stories that opened their eyes and made them wonder. Each day, the children eagerly wait for story time, buddy reading and "library". It has been so rewarding to see them grow and to watch their reading improve with the help of these amazing resources. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and generosity. You have allowed me to build my library, something I will continue to do. More importantly, you have allowed my children to dream through the pages of these books and have ensured a loving of reading that will go on throughout their lives.”
