  • Souvenir Socks

    Funded Dec 9, 2024

    Merci beaucoup for the adorable souvenir socks with French sayings! They brought so much joy and excitement to the students, adding both warmth and a fun cultural touch to our days. Beyond being cozy, they sparked curiosity, laughter, and a deeper appreciation for the French language. Your thoughtful gift created lasting memories, and we are truly grateful for the happiness it brought us.

    The socks made the perfect prize and brought smiles to every face after they completed a scavenger hunt in the Louvre Museum.

    With heartfelt thanks,”

  • World Explorer Essentials

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generosity. All of the items that you helped purchase for my students were used everyday. Students recorded our adventures in the journals daily and drew sketches of artwork with the wonderful drawing supplies that you provided. My students loved the cute hand sanitizers.

    The first aid kit that you also provided thankfully went unused, except for a couple of band-aids as we all stayed happy and healthy throughout the entire trip.

    With the adapters and battery packs our devices were always charged and ready to snap photos or direct us where to go.

    Thank you all again so much for your continued generosity over many travel adventures I have taken with my students. Each time I get to observe them grown and experience extraordinary culture and life lessons. It is truly priceless.”

    Thank you so much for your generosity. All of the items that you helped purchase for my students were used everyday. Students recorded our adventures in the journals daily and drew sketches of artwork with the wonderful drawing supplies that you provided. My students loved the water bottles and filled them everyday, in fact, the other students from another school were very jealous of our cool water bottles.

  • Travel Journals and Water Bottles

    Funded Jan 7, 2019

    Thank you so much for your generosity. All of the items that you helped purchase for my students were used everyday. Students recorded our adventures in the journals daily and used them to draw sketches next to the ancient Ishtar gate of Babylon with the wonderful drawing supplies that you provided. We again used the art supplies at the John Lennon peace wall in Prague, where we were able to leave our mark and messages of peace and love. My students loved the water bottles and filled them everyday, in fact, the other students from another school were very jealous of our cool water bottles.

  • Travel Diaries

    Funded Dec 12, 2016

    Thank you so much for your generous gifts! The students are really looking forward to visiting Spain, and I know that they be even more excited when I show them the cool journals that you helped purchase for them.

    From my own travels I know that when you go a mile a minute and experience so much in a short time, all the great memories can easily get jumbled together. With these great new travel journals the students will be able to record what they see and how they feel when we learn to make tapas, see a flamenco performance, and just plain old site see.

    Thank you again for your enormous help.”

  • Travel Journals

    Funded Oct 29, 2015

    Thank you all so much for your generosity. It means the world to have such great family and friends ready to support us in a heartbeat.

    The students and I had an amazing time touring London and Paris. We learned so much about the history, art and culture of the UK and France. We even managed to fit in fun activities and develop our own inside jokes while on the trip.

    The journals you helped purchase will ensure that my students will have memories of the details of this trip for the rest of their lives. Many of them used every free moment on train rides or before dinner to chronicle our experiences. We even used the journals as sketch pads when we visited the Louvre and the Jardin du Luxembourg. Their sketches are much better than mine.

    Thank you so much for your help and support!”

  • Basketball At Brooklyn H.S. of the Arts

    Funded Oct 8, 2012

    Thank you all so much for your generosity. It means the world to have such great family and friends ready to support us in a heartbeat.

    I had a great experience participating in my school's athletics and your help will make sure that we have it at BHSA. It will change change the lives of some of my students.

    Thank you for acting so fast, we will definitely get the supplies before the season begins and hopefully I can teach them something more than just how to box out.

    The materials that you helped purchase have helped the coaching side of having a basketball team tremendously. We now have plenty of basketballs for practice and have all the proper equipment for game time.

    Thank you so much for your help and support!”

We are a Title I school with no athletic extra curricular activities. We are a performing arts school that has been open for ten years. Our students maintain an over 90% attendance rate and are very talented in all of their art forms, whether it is visual arts, instrumental music, drama, dance or vocal. While we have so much to offer in terms of the arts, we lack in the traditional extracurricular activities offered throughout the city's public school system. Our students deserve to have a team that will provide safe and challenging outlet after school. Athletics can give them an escape from the hardships of living in the inner city, and we can help them to realize and fulfill their true potential.
