  • Help Support My Students with Snacks for Warmth and Success

    Funded Feb 14, 2025

    From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness and generosity. Because of you, my students will have the joy of warm drinks to comfort them during these chilly days and some delicious snacks to bring a little extra warmth to our classroom. Your support means more than just treats—it’s a reminder to my students that they are cared for and valued.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Salazar

  • Unlocking Spanish Language Learning Through Board Games and Podcasting!

    Funded Aug 14, 2024

    My students and I are really thankful for your kind contribution. Podcasting and board games have proven to be valuable tools to Spanish class, enhancing student engagement and language skills in fun, interactive ways. Podcasting encourages students to practice the language, improving their fluency, pronunciation, and vocabulary. My students have even created their own avatars and have used them to create short videos and sketches in Spanish, using their voices.

    On the other hand, board games encourage communication and teamwork in a relaxed environment, prompting students to practice Spanish in everyday situations. Both activities foster a more dynamic, enjoyable learning experience, helping students build confidence and fluency in the language. Playing "loteria" in Spanish was something new to them, but they have so far enjoyed it.

    Thank you so much for your amazing contribution. Your donations have contributed to create a vibrant and effective learning environment. Thanks to your kindness, my students are able to deepen their understanding of the Spanish language and culture, and grow in confidence as global communicators. We truly appreciate your dedication to fostering educational growth!”

    With gratitude,

  • Class in Dire Need of Paper

    Funded Dec 16, 2022

    My class and I can't thank you enough for your generous contribution. Thanks to your kindness, my class has now enough pencils (a must-have) and folders where students keep their worksheets. Since we started using folders, there are no worksheets getting lost as they are 100% accountable for them and their contents. They even seem to take good care of them.

    There also was a shortage of paper at school for many weeks. I was concerned about having enough resources to be able to teach a class and have all worksheets available for my students. Your donation came right on time so my class continued to learn more. We have been reading books and learning about the Hispanic language and culture. We even visited a museum and will soon start working on our class' final project before they are promoted to high school.”

  • In Dire Need Of Headsets

    Funded Apr 8, 2022

    We can't thank you enough. Thanks to your donation my students can listen and enhance their Spanish language skills.

    As a whole class they like to watch videos and engage in different types of activities. However, not all students learn at the same pace and have the same needs. Some of them may require more repetition than others in order to fully understand the content.

    Now with headsets available for each student, they can now listen at their own pace and work independently without having to wait for others, nor ask for repetition. Besides this, They also like the idea of having the option to listen to music while they work.”

    With gratitude,

My students often come from families that struggle to make ends meet, requiring them to contribute financially at a young age. Many work late hours or take on multiple part-time jobs, often in physically or emotionally demanding environments. The income they earn is crucial for covering basic necessities such as rent, utilities, groceries, and sometimes even school supplies. Despite these hardships, they manage to attend school every day, driven by a strong belief in the power of education as a pathway to a better future. Their schedules are often grueling; after a long day at school, they head straight to work, leaving little time for rest or leisure. Yet, they consistently show up to class, participate actively, and strive to excel academically.
