    Thank you so much for your generous donation! My kids will be absolutely thrilled when they receive their amazing literacy/ math kit. It is incredibly important to provide the necessary tools kids need to learn and succeed in school, but especially right now during this difficult distance-learning. You have done just that with your incredible donation. 🤗”

  • STEAM for Saturday Smarties

    Funded Jan 11, 2019

    I am so grateful that you made such a generous donation. I appreciate your thoughtful and kind gesture. With your donation, I am able to expand the minds of kids who would otherwise not have the resources to experience hands-on activities. Thank you for providing the opportunity for kids to learn by making and doing; I truly believe my kids have the potential to become the next great scientist or astronaut! Thanks for helping them blast off!!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Hurst

The materials in the Maker Cart will inspire children to think like inventors and scientists. Kids can collaborate to creatively build, explore and experiment with materials that inspire twenty-first century learning skills. Children will use critical thinking to communicate their ideas and opinions with their classmates. Helping children to innovate and discover allows them to make connections in all disciplines. When children are presented opportunities to learn through investigation, they understand concepts better and engage with each other to develop important skills for future discoveries. Allowing students to be active and take initiative for their own learning provides the best academic success.
