    I want to give my thanks for your donation to my project. I am happy to see that others share my joy and desire for successful children.

    The tools that you have funded will enable my students to view and enjoy all the hard work they put into their projects. Their vision coming to life is one that they will remember for years to come. In addition,the funded printer and the materials relating to the printer, will allow my students to create writing samples and print them. They will make a classroom book of all the writings that describe the Hammer Houses.
