  • Reading Is Believing

    Funded Dec 31, 2023

    We want to thank you so much for your generosity. I can't begin to tell you what it means to these kids to have a book they can connect to at their fingertips! They are sweet, hard-working, highly intelligent kids who sometimes just need a little boost, and you are all part of that for them. They are already excited about the gift of books to our classroom. Again, thank you, and we will send you pictures to show you how we will connect to the book. Our classroom is a better place because of your awesome contribution.”

    Ms. Ricks

  • Excited to Read! Percy Jackson!

    Funded Nov 1, 2022

    It is with great pleasure and gratitude that I submit this impact letter of appreciation. Thank you for your kindness and willingness to give to our reading project. With your awesome donations of teachers pay teachers card, I was able to provide Percy Jackson chapter workbooks for my ESL students.

    Because of your gratitude, I was able to offer an interesting, captivating book that would attract my multicultural students. Your gift empowered them to have positive attitudes towards learning and reading in a new language.

    Again, thank you for your donation. Our students face is lit up when they knew someone out there was kind enough to support them and their learning. This has been a highlight to our school year.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Ricks
