  Funded Dec 11, 2021

  Thank you so much for your generosity. It has helped my classroom in numerous ways by preparing my students for the ever changing technological world. It is so amazing to be able to easily alter lessons to childrens' specific learning styles so that they can achieve. It is great to be able to take brain breaks, try STEM challenges, and push my students' thinking. My classroom has been able to function on a totally higher level and it absolutely shows! We are able to tap into a new kind of learning and see what the kids are capable of.

• In Living Color!

  Funded Nov 30, 2020

  There aren't enough words to describe the impact of your donation, but I'll try. When speaking of the daily challenges of teaching in a low-income area, the biggest one is getting your hands on basic supplies like ink. Then, add in the realities of a pandemic, and the money you set aside for ink quickly becomes an afterthought and you use it to purchase microwave food your students can have for dinner. Your donation makes everything possible without me having to dig more deeply into my own pockets that support my own family. As teachers, especially this year, we feel a responsibility to care for our children like family and give them every opportunity. Your donation allowed me to challenge them to reflect on their year through writing.”

• School Newspaper Needs Color!

  Funded Dec 13, 2019

  I cannot thank you enough for bringing our school newspaper to LIFE! Our students have been creating questions, interviewing, drafting articles, revising and editing, and then having all that work being printed in black and white. The lack of color has allowed their efforts to be overlooked and forgotten about. Although we have clearly been doing our best to develop our first school newspaper, it needed some color to be noticed and truly shine from the work put into it. With your donation and support, we have been able to let the photographer's eyes shine, the comic strips and riddles glow, and the words of our reporters jump off the page. It has made more students want to join the news crew and has created a "buzz" for those considering enrolling in our school. All of this is thanks to the color boost you've provided!”
