• The Possibilities are Endless

  Funded Mar 30, 2025

  Just in time for the students to get their poetry projects started. They spent the last month learning different poetry and writing their own. Now they will put those poems into a poetry book that they will design themselves. Thank you so much for your donation!! Pictures will be coming soon.”

• Dream Big and Take Action

  Funded Oct 29, 2024

  I have been blessed by Donors for many of my projects, and I couldn't be more grateful. This time I was truly blown away and how quickly and generous this donor was. Google decided to fund most of my project leaving only a few dollars to get fully funded. I was so excited that I yelled down the halls. That night I was going to put the rest of the money in to get the project on its way. Before I knew it, someone else funded the rest of the project. Again, I was overwhelmed with joy. This particular project is special because it deals with the mental health of my students. Doing a "Dream Board" with them is beyond helpful to their self-esteem. Thank you again for your generosity.”

• A New Journey

  Funded Sep 17, 2024

  As always, you have made a difference in my classroom. This particular donation is extremely special because it came from my two sons. They decided that for this year's birthday present, they would focus on what I really love, and that is my love for teaching. They knew that I use Donors Choose to help find supplies for my students and knew this would be a great gift. They were 100% correct. It touched me and made me feel loved. I will use the gift card for "teachers pay teachers" to help with my lesson plans. In turn, it will benefit other teachers as well.”

• Taking Charge

  Funded May 9, 2024

  The frustration is real...Not anymore!! Thanks to you, I no longer have to worry if my students will be prepared for class. In this day and age, Chromebooks are the new book. The issue is if they aren't charged, they don't work. With your help, I can offer charging cords without any hassle. The class can continue. The other issue is actually that only having Chromebooks makes it difficult to go old school and use paper and pencil. Thanks to you again, I have the supplies when they don't. Also sharing the supplies with the life skills class has made everyone beyond happy!”

• Creating with Cricut

  Funded Mar 27, 2024

  Every year, I go into the poetry project hoping for the best and the best is what these students give me. In return, I need to provide them with my best. With your help, I can give them all the supplies they need year after year.

  One of the ways your donations help is by providing the students with supplies that help them create amazing book covers. They can create their designs and complete their projects without any hassle.

  Your donations also helped decorate our school while I displayed the students' hard work and creativity. Finally, I used the materials to show off all the seniors by making these awesome graduation caps. The hallway looks awesome.”

• Sticking Together

  Funded Oct 12, 2023

  First of all, Thank you!! I was able to share these supplies with another classroom, and wow, they were extremely grateful. Of course, I told them it was from you. They are a life-skills class and do projects daily. There are so many projects they support from their own pockets. This was a huge help.

  For me, I am beyond grateful. This donation has already helped my first project, the Vision boards that are made from their silhouettes. They turned out amazing. Next we will be using the glue sticks for our poetry books. What a blessing!!

  Thank You!!!”

• Got Books?

  Funded Mar 30, 2023

  I really appreciate all the help you have given me through the year. Getting more books for my class library is beyond amazing. Not having a library in our district is a challenge, but with your help, I am able to supply the students with great books to read. The books were selected from our new administrator who also sees the importance of reading. This will also help build our summer reading program. Again, thank you for all you do and keep donating. We still need more and we need you!! Have a great summer.”
