    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for funding my project! My new students will be so ecstatic to have all of these new materials! I know that having all of these tools will enhance their experience in my classroom. You made a big difference by donating. Thank you so very much for your generosity.”

  • Our Hearts Beat in 2 Languages

    Funded Jan 9, 2023

    Thank you so very much for supporting my classroom! The students were so excited when all the materials started coming in. I teach in a Dual-Immersion setting in which students are not only learning all their second-grade academic subjects but learning them in Spanish and English! It is a lot of fun, but hard work!

    As a teacher, despite having all my curriculum provided by my district I often find myself needing to spice up lessons to make them more appealing and engaging for my students. I usually end up purchasing a lot of materials out of pocket so I was very thankful to receive a refill on materials we needed mid-year, like the markers, glue sticks, and other art materials.

    The flexible seating options like the ball chairs and the bean bag chairs are such an amazing addition. Students love the bean bag chairs to sit and enjoy their favorite books and the ball chairs have been a wonderful addition to my V.I.P student area. All students have a turn to be VIP and sitting on the bouncy chair is such a joy for them.

    Again, I am very grateful for your support and send you e-hugs!!!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Atencio-O'Brien

    Funded Apr 23, 2023

    Thank you so much for your support and believing in our classroom! The students will really benefit from having a comfortable carpet to sit on during our lessons. We are eager for its arrival! Donors like you make it possible for me to do my job effectively. Thank you for your contribution and making the world a better place!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Atencio-O'Brien
