  • Books For The Holidays!

    Funded Dec 27, 2024

    I cannot express how thankful I am for your generosity. My students are going to be so excited. They love reading all kinds of books. Thanks again. I can't wait for the resource to arrive. I enjoy the look on my students' faces when I show them their new books.My students do not have much. So when I am able to introduce them to something new, I love it. They are great kids who just need a break. With all the problems in their lives, I like to feel like I'm there for them in any way I can.”

  • Mini Fridge For Healthy Snacks

    Funded Nov 29, 2022

    I want to thank you for your generous contribution to my Mini Fridge for Healthy Snacks project. My students were super happy when the box arrived at our classroom. They helped me open the box and decide where was the best spot to keep the mini-fridge. Thanks to this mini fridge now my students can keep their food and snacks from home at a safe temperature. This will minimize the risk of them getting sick. This fridge will be of great help when the hot months arrive to keep their drinks cold and also to keep special treats cool. Thank you once again for your good heart and desire to make my project come true.”

  • Eco-Friendly Water Bottles for Amazing Students

    Funded Aug 9, 2022

    My students and I are deeply grateful for your generosity and interest in helping us reduce pollution. Thanks to the reusable water bottles you donated to us, my students can now reuse their bottles indefinitely. I no longer have to worry about harmful chemicals being released in their water from re-using unsafe water bottles. My students were super happy because they chose the colors for their bottles.

    Our reusable water bottles arrived just in time to be used along with a new water filler station that was installed at my school.”

  • Microwave To Warm Up Their Meals.

    Funded Sep 20, 2022

    My students and I have used the microwave that you generously donated for our classroom daily. I wish you could have seen their little faces when the microwave arrived. They were clapping and cheering. I am happy that now my students can have a more diverse diet. Not just sandwiches every single day.

    For the past two weeks I have helped heat up delicious homemade soups and stews. They are happy to be able to eat something cook by their love ones. The microwave will be of great help during our long winters in our city.”

  • Cleaning Supplies for a Safe and Clean Library

    Funded Apr 28, 2022

    Thank you so much for your support. Your donation allowed our library to end the year strong and safe!. At the end of every school day my library helpers wiped tables and high touched areas. All students visiting the library utilized hand sanitizer each time they enter the room. The duster gloves were so useful to remove dust and dirt from book shelves and in between books. I was also able to use this wonderful duster gloves to clean chrome and computer screens without causing any scratches.

    Thank you again for your heartfelt and gracious assistance!”

  • Healthy Snacks for Curious Minds!

    Funded Apr 19, 2022

    I cannot find the words to express you how wonderful it was to have snacks for my students. My students loved snack time and needed it. They were so excited when the boxes arrived, and they saw all the snacks!

    All my students receive free breakfast and lunch at school due to the economic status of the families through the federal lunch program. Sometimes they eat little because they do not like it, or they are not used to the food. Having extra snacks around is so helpful when someone is hungry. The families and students really appreciated that.

    I am so thankful and grateful to the donors that gave to this project. Something as simple as snacks is important for children when they are trying to learn. Thank you for your generosity and support!”

My Project Having this rug will create a warmer, more inviting space for reading, imagination and discovering . The rug can be a cozy spot for students to stretch out, lay on their tummies, and enjoy a book during their visit at the library! Students will each have a personal space for reading and listening to a story as a whole group. Students currently sit on a very old, and thin carpet that is very uncomfortable for them. It is never clear to them where to sit. For most of my students, this is their first experience with a library and it is a joy to see them being able to self-select books based on their personal.
