  • Keep Me Safe!

    Funded May 4, 2021

    Thank You so much for helping me keep my kids safe during this Covid Pandemic, with the use of the air purifier I was able to provide clean air to the best of my ability. With everyone being scared of the unknown us teachers needed to make sure our students felt safe comin to school. I explained to them that as long as we all took our safety measures we would be ok. I reassured them that I would do everything I could to help keep them safe. I showed them the air purifier and explained what it did. This made them feel a little more safe that the air was being cleaned.

    Thank You once again for helping me keep my students safe.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Pena

  • Good Listening Goes a Long Way!

    Funded May 3, 2021

    Thank You for your donations of my class set of head phones, with everything going on as far as the Covid Pandemic they really came in handy. About 80% of my students did not have head phones to use during instruction so they really benefited from this gracious donation.

    The use of technology in schools today is very crucial especially during these times. My students were able to use different Math and Reading programs like Education Galaxy, Prodigy, Kidz A-Z, Seesaw, Imagine Reading, Imagine Math and some others to enhance their education. Having the head phones made it possible for my students to listen attentively to what the programs were asking them to do and of course minimized the noise level in the classroom.

    Once again thank you so much for your contribution and for making it possible for my students to be successful with the use of technology in the classroom and using the head phones daily.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Pena
