My Kindergarten Students Need Some Center Materials!
Funded Feb 27, 2017Thank you so much for the amazing new resources! My kinder students love learning about colors and building skills that will help them in the general education classroom! The color magnet mazes are super fun and easy for all grades! I can't thank you enough for the amazing new resources.
My kids rant used to new thing. Many of them are more concerned about where their next meal is coming from or where they're going to sleep. So, the new additions to the classroom have been a great addition to my Art curriculum.
I really appreciate it so much. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!”

Funded Nov 29, 2016Thank you so much for your generous donation! Thanks to you, we received our new markers just in time for some of our upcoming Chinese New Year projects. We use these tools everyday and without them we would have no art. My kids are hooked on markers and love the bright new colors!
My students aren't used to new and nice things. Most of them are more concerned about where they are going o sleep at night or where their next meal comes from so the markers are a great addition to our art room.
These supplies will be used by almost 1,000 kids and help create over 3,000 art projects. I can't thank you enough for your donation to our growing Art Kingdom. Without these markers I have no idea how my students would survive in art class!”

Help Us Get Out Of Our Seats And Move

We have used it during recess, lunch, and even our fall festival! The speaker is so powerful students can even hear it while outside! It has been an amazing addition to our Art room and I can't thank you enough.
Each day I am so grateful to go to school and see my students. I know we don't have much in terms of money and supplies but the smiles on their faces make it all worth it. The bluetooth speaker will continue to have an impact on students in the next school year allowing 1,084 students to create works of Art while listening to music!
Each student I teach from the kindergarten to the fifth grade is grateful for your donation and will continue to make wonderful art because of your generosity. Your gift lives on for years to come. Thanks again.”

Funded Nov 3, 2016Thank you so much for funding our brand new supply of art drawing books. My kids love to draw and the new art books have been a big hit. With the new books they can learn about famous artist, time periods in art and the elements of art. One of our favorites that I read to every grade level is, When Pigasso Met Mootisse. This is a story about , two famous Artists, Picasso and Mattise. They become fierce rivals, calling each other names and building a fence between the both of them. However, when the two painters paint opposite sides of the fence they end up creating a modern art masterpiece, and learn it is their friendship that is the true work of art. The kids love this book and it teaches them an extremely valuable lesson.
Now, we have the beginnings or start of nice library of books that inspire my kids. My more advance kids who finish projects early ask to use the read the books and draw inspiration from them.
Also, my kids enjoy looking at the books for ideas for their current art projects. These books are an excellent enhancement of my art class. Once again thank you so much for supporting our elementary art program.”
