  • Back to Basics in First Grade!

    Funded Jan 1, 2025

    Thank you for the generous donations for my project for our first grade classroom! It is important that students have the basic necessities throughout the school year. While copy paper was on the list, it may not seem like something students need to learn. In order to learn, students must have paper for worksheets and informational sheets. With the district I work in, copy paper can be hard to come by. By donating paper to the classroom, it is a tremendous amount of help! My class looks forward to using the supplies in this package to thrive!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Keener

  • Incentives for First Grade!

    Funded Dec 17, 2024

    Thank you so much for filling our first grade prize box! By donating to this project, I have enough rewards and incentives for hopefully the rest of the school year! It is so important that students want to learn, and by creating incentives, students push themselves to be uncomfortable in order to try to learn a new skill! It is with great gratitude that my prize box will not run empty and that students will have various choices to pick from. They were so excited to watch me unbox everything so that they knew what they are working towards!”

  • Back to Basics in January

    Funded Mar 24, 2025

    Thank you for your gratitude with your donation! This project will help students continue to thrive in first grade! By using the white boards, to the copy paper, students will be enriched through small group instruction as well as whole group instruction! Our class thanks you for all the help!”

  • Basic School Supplies

    Funded Nov 26, 2024

    Thank you for the generous donations for basic school supplies! The students were so excited to know that their supplies had been restocked and ready to go for the rest of the year! We have used these supplies, especially the paper, to create many learning moments throughout the classroom. For example, my students were able to write about the Cat in the Hat and what they would do if he visited them! By restocking the basic necessities, students are able to reach their full potential without worrying about materials and those barriers!”
