  • Visual Connections: Bringing ASL and Learning to Life with Technology

    As a teacher of deaf students, I know how crucial it is to provide them with the right tools to enhance their communication and language development. Your kindness is making a direct impact, giving them the opportunity to grow and thrive in their learning.

  • Visual Access for Deaf Students

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    I cannot express enough gratitude for your generous contribution to our classroom. Because of your support, my Deaf students now have access to swivel chairs that allow them to maintain visual access to the entire classroom without limitations.

    For Deaf students, education is deeply tied to what they can see. Whether it's following discussions, engaging with interpreters, or accessing visual learning materials, being able to quickly and comfortably shift their gaze is essential. Traditional stationary chairs often create barriers, making it difficult for students to follow conversations, watch demonstrations, or fully participate in discussions.

    Now, thanks to you, my students can effortlessly turn to see their peers, their interpreter, and most importantly their teacher and the lesson provided—ensuring they don't miss valuable moments of learning. Your generosity has directly impacted their ability to engage, collaborate, and thrive in an environment designed for full accessibility.

    From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping make our classroom a more inclusive and equitable space. Your kindness has made a real difference, and my students and I are incredibly grateful.”

  • Visual Math Tools

    Funded Sep 25, 2024

    I want to start off by saying thank you! Thank you for reading my donation letter and finding my student worthy of your donation. I know you could of donated to any other donors choose account but you choose mine and I want to give a warm and heart felt THANK YOU! I also want to share the incredible impact your generosity has had on my students and classroom. Thanks to your support, my students now have access to engaging and accessible math visuals that are truly making a difference in their learning journey.

    In our classroom, visuals play a vital role in bridging language and conceptual understanding. For students, clear and meaningful visuals are not just helpful—they are essential. With the math visuals you helped provide, my students are more confident in approaching problem-solving techniques. These resources help them connect abstract math ideas to real-world applications, fostering deeper comprehension and long-term retention.

    The excitement on their faces when they use these visuals is something I wish you could see firsthand. When we are working on word problems, I see how my student are able to comprehend these problems and make them visual and find the correct answer and it is moments like those that affirm the importance of what you've made possible.

    Your kindness and belief in the potential of my students inspire me as their teacher to strive even harder. You are not just helping with their education today; you are building the foundation for their future success in academics and beyond.

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of our journey. Your support means the world to me and my students.”

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous contribution to our classroom. Your donation of several sets of books has had an incredible impact on my students' literacy journey. Witnessing the joy and excitement on their faces as they dive into these new books has been truly inspiring.

    Thanks to your kindness, my students now have access to books that cater to their individual reading levels. This has not only increased their enthusiasm for reading but has also fostered a sense of inclusivity within the classroom. No longer do they have to compete or feel left out when it comes to selecting books. Your generosity has created a more equitable learning environment where every student has the opportunity to explore and enjoy reading.
