Boosting PE Energy: Music That Moves Us!
Funded Dec 31, 2024I can't thank you enough for your generosity in funding our DonorsChoose project for a JBL Boombox! Music plays a huge role in creating an engaging and energetic atmosphere in PE, and thanks to your support, my students will now have high-quality sound to keep them moving, motivated, and having fun. Whether it's for warm-ups, dance activities, or setting the tone for different games, this speaker will make a lasting impact on our gym.
Physical education is about more than just exercise—it's about building a love for movement, teamwork, and lifelong healthy habits. Having great music will help enhance our lessons, bring excitement to our activities, and create an environment where all students feel encouraged to participate. Your generosity has made this possible, and we are so grateful for your support!
On behalf of myself and all of my students—thank you!”

Funded Jan 15, 2025I am incredibly grateful for your generosity in funding our project for bowling equipment! Because of your support, my students at Sumner Elementary now have the opportunity to experience a fun and inclusive sport that helps build coordination, teamwork, and confidence. Many of my students wouldn't otherwise have access to bowling, and now they'll get to enjoy the excitement of rolling strikes and spares right in our gym.
Physical education is all about introducing students to new ways to stay active and engaged, and this equipment will make a huge difference in keeping them moving and motivated. I can't wait to see their smiles as they set up pins, cheer each other on, and develop new skills. Your kindness and generosity have truly made an impact, and we are so lucky to have supporters like you.
On behalf of myself and all of my students—thank you!”

Help Fund Gaga Pits for Inclusive Play!
Funded Dec 11, 2023I am writing to extend my heartfelt appreciation for your generous support in funding our classroom project for a Gaga Pit. Your contribution has truly transformed the experience for my students and has brought immense joy and excitement to our school community.
Since the arrival of the Gaga Pit, our students have been actively engaged in friendly competitions and collaborative play during physical education classes. The moment they laid eyes on the colorful pit, their faces lit up with excitement, and they couldn't wait to jump in and start playing. It's been heartwarming to see students of all ages and abilities come together to enjoy this inclusive and energetic game. The Gaga Pit has not only provided a fun and safe space for physical activity but has also fostered friendships and teamwork among our students.
Looking ahead, we plan to incorporate the Gaga Pit into our physical education curriculum, organizing tournaments and games to promote sportsmanship and healthy competition. Your generous donation has made all of this possible, and we are incredibly grateful for your support in enriching the lives of our students.”

Funded Mar 19, 2022Thank you SOO much for all your donations for our field day equipment! Because of you, we had the most amazing Field Day ever! Kids did awesome relay races, played lawn games, danced, painted silly things on their faces, and kept cool with some water activities. You could tell just by walking around that every kid was having fun, laughing, and getting along with their classmates. When we got to the field and the kids saw everything set up, they were so excited! This was a day the kids will talk about for a long time, that is, until next year's Field Day! Thanks again for your donation. It is so appreciated.”
