Period Products in my School
Funded Mar 1, 2025Thank you for helping me be able to provide period products for my students. With the majority of the schools population as girls, your donation will leave a lasting impact in their lives. My hope is that the stigma associated with menstruation is lessened and the awareness regarding the accessibility of period products in schools be increased. Thank you for supporting and empowering these young women and gender nonconforming students in my school.”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by A California Family and 6 other donors.Growing a Love for Indoor Gardening
Funded Dec 9, 2024The gardening materials (soil, seeds, pots, tools) we receive created a buzz in my classroom. Initially was skeptical if my 17 year old students would be interested in getting their hands dirty and patiently waiting for their seeds to germinate but I was wrong. From the moment we received our materials the students immediately wanted to plant. For some, it was their first time experiencing it. After setting up our pots and seeds, the excitement kept growing and growing as each group became competitive on whose seeds will germinate first. They would check on their plants daily and share updates among themselves.
This reaction from my students was something I did not expect. It made me realize the impact of certain experiences in their well being. I noticed that they developed patience as they wait for their plants to grow. I observed that they are more empathetic, and appreciative of this experience. As their teacher, witnessing this change is one of those precious moments that I would treasure and I thank you, Donors, for making it possible for me and my students.”
