• Hygiene For All

  Funded Mar 18, 2020

  My school is a mixed of middle and low income. Anything we can do to help reduce the stress of purchasing girl related hygiene products we do, that's why I was so excited to see this project when it was offered.

  My girls were thrilled!!! They loved them!! They were excited!! They saved money!! The cost of sanitary napkins is a lot so they truly appreciated the savings. There was a lot of nervous laughing going on as I handed out the packages but they were very grateful. We will be looking for similar offers to help us offset the cost of hygiene products for our girls!!

  Love the students of PS/IS 48!!”

• Goods for Good Behavior!

  Funded Apr 16, 2019

  In our school, we use a system that brings real rewards to our students. The system promotes positive student behaviors, both academically and socially. Just like adults, students need incentives for their hard work. When we began the program, we had mediocre rewards. In order for the program to work, we needed rewards that would truly motivate our students. As you can see from the photos, the students have been super excited to see the new (potential) prizes we have for them! This would have never happened without your generous donations!”

• Reaching For Realistic Rewards!

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  Just like adults, students need to be rewarded for their hard work and effort. The program my school has chosen to implement does just that. The students are shown what positive behaviors look like and sound like. They are shown expectations for the classroom, cafeteria, hallway, and even our school bathrooms. When the students are observed following these expectations, they receive one of our school "dollars." With your donation, they can now exchange their dollars for amazing rewards!

  The students save their dollars and then come to "shop" at our school store! Thanks again for helping us implement this amazing program!”

• School Time Sports!

  Funded Mar 12, 2018

  As you can see from the photos-the students were VERY excited to receive our sports donations! Unfortunately, it has been too cold to utilize them!

  Once the weather warms up, the students told me they are excited to use the new balls during recess! A few students also mentioned that they were excited to play mini-golf while in school since it is not usually a school time sport! One of the students suggested a staff kickball game with our new supplies!

  Thank you again for helping me make a difference in the lives' of my many students!”

• Impressive Incentives!

  Funded Mar 12, 2018

  Once again, thanks to your donations-my students have been able to receive impressive incentives for their positive behaviors!

  As you can see from the photos, they were so happy to help me unpack these new items!

  Although they are not immediately able to trade in their earned "dollars" for their incentive, it gave them even more motivation to continue their positive academic and social behaviors!

  Thank you for making all of this possible! Without your generous donations, we would not be able to continue this wonderful program at my school!”

• Incredible Kids Need Incredible Awards!

  Funded Feb 26, 2018

  Since September, the students in my school have been receiving "dollars" for following various academic and behavioral protocols my school has put into place. We have had various rewards all year, some of them were not that appealing to my students.

  We FINALLY now have some rewards that appeal to them! As you can see from the photos, the students were VERY excited about the new items in our school store! The students are definitely eager to continue earning their "dollars" that could potentially gain them an exciting item like the Amazon Echo!

  Thank you again for helping me show the students that hard work DOES pay off!”
