• Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration to Improve Friendships and Mental Health

  Funded Sep 18, 2024

  My class and I would like to thank you for your generous donations to our project. Your contributions helped me give my students a welcoming environment filled with fun games, snacks, books and culturally inclusive materials from their home culture. While playing with the table games donated, the students made new friends and learned new vocabulary in a fun way. Even our school principal joined in on the fun and played Mexican Bingo with our class. I've laminated the bingo boards for continuous playing. The books and decorations validated their Hispanic heritage and made them feel connected and accepted. Your kindness has truly touched our classroom by fostering a positive and supportive environment. Each day, the newcomers smile with pride when entering the classroom and seeing their countries' flags waving on their desks. Your contributions have made a significant difference in our classroom, and we are truly grateful for the positive impact you're making in our students' lives.”

• Less Distraction, More Learning!

  Funded May 8, 2024

  I am writing with a heart full of gratitude for your generous support and contribution to our classroom. Your fluorescent light covers donation has reduced anxiety and created a more comfortable and relaxing learning environment for our students. The privacy shields allowed me to enhance our students' learning by creating study areas where students individually recorded their simulated conversations and cultural comparisons for the speaking part of their AP exams. Thank you so much for your support and believing in our classroom!”

• Mania Musical

  Funded Feb 22, 2024

  It is with tremendous gratitude and appreciation that I submit this impact letter to my donors for your kindness and generosity. These materials have had such an incredible impact on my students' lives. One of my students told me that she was so happy that I'm her Spanish teacher, because her grandparents only speak Spanish and now she's able to better communicate with them by sharing what she's learning in class. Moments like that, keep me inspired to continue teaching, and overjoyed that your donation helped this moment happen.Thank you very much for donating to our World Language classroom. Your kindness won't go unnoticed especially for our Hispanic Heritage students. These materials helped my students embrace their Hispanic heritage and closed the gap between the older and younger generations. Hearing their home language play aloud in school, made students feel welcomed in schools and improved and increased students' attention, focus, and academic achievement.”
