  • Mobility Whiteboard!

    Funded Sep 11, 2023

    Thank you so much for "Mobility Whiteboard!" project request. Because of your kindness and generosity, we will have a beautiful whiteboard with markers and a marker stand. The whiteboard on wheels are going to ensure that we do not waste paper as the students can write on the board to present instead of making print-outs.”

  • Skorts for Our Girls, Please!

    Funded Aug 25, 2023

    Thank you so much for fully funding my "Skorts for Our Girls, Please!" project request! We ran out of school uniforms for our older students and I almost went out of pocket to purchase some uniform skorts but you saved the school year. The girls simply love skorts as they are shorts and skirts in one. The sizes are just perfect for our students and they will be a perfect fit.

    I already started distributing to a few students who just arrived from Haiti and Cuba. Words cannot express my gratitude as now I can give school uniforms to students in dire need.”

  • We Are on Fire with Amazon Fire Tablets!

    Funded Nov 19, 2021

    Words cannot express my gratitude for your support in fully funding my "We Are on Fire with Amazon Fire Tablets!" project request! My students love the Amazon Fire tablets and they get a lot of online activities and assignments done on them. They are also able to research home learning topics and projects.

    The best part is their ability to complete required progress quizzes for reading and math and their access to apps such as IXL. Some students, unfortunately, do not have internet access at home but are now able to complete online assessments in school on these Fire tablets, before and after school. Thank you for making a difference!”

  • Handling Handouts in a Healthy Way!

    Funded Feb 7, 2022

    Thank you so much for supporting my "Handling Handouts in a Healthy Way!" project request! I have been waiting and hoping for a very long time for a multifunctional printer that I can use for my students for the printing of their assignments, resources, and their home learning activities. Thank you for allowing me to give them the handouts and printouts needed for their academic success!”

  • iPads for Literacy and Testing!

    Funded Mar 17, 2021

    Thank you so much for supporting my classroom and fully funding my "iPads for Literacy and Testing!" My students were very excited and I am still having challenges with getting them to take turns sharing. The added technology has gone a very long way in terms of giving the students who need internet resources to complete assessments and assignments. This not would have been made possible, had you not chosen my project. The students look forward to using the iPad and some had to be taught how to use it also. We truly appreciate your support for public schools.”

In my school, there are students that I serve who have various special needs as well as multiple learning styles. Because of the learning challenges they face, we have to find ways to accommodate each child. Issues that relate to learning styles sometimes require that these students use touch screen computers as they would grasp concepts and retain knowledge longer and easier. In March of 2020, we were abruptly changed to a virtual and remote style of teaching and learning, which was a struggle in itself for everyone. Now that we will be testing virtually at the end of the school year, some of my students share the nightmare of crashing and outdated computers and not having a reliable device to test on. We are requesting one Apple iPad that has a built-in camera and microphone that can be used seamlessly for students to remotely complete assignments and take online tests.
