• Birthday Bags

  Funded Jun 23, 2024

  My students have been receiving the birthday bags on their birthdays and it has been such an exciting thing to experience together! When students first heard that they would be receiving birthday bags on their birthday, they were ecstatic! They have spent the days counting down each student's birthday and celebrating with them when they open their bag. Students take time to sing to students on their big day and it really makes their birthday an extra special day in the classroom which is so important to me! Thanks to you, I was able to make this a reality for my students.”

• Happy Birthday to You!

  Funded Jun 29, 2022

  Thank you for your generous donations to my students to celebrate their birthdays in our classroom. What joy has been brought to their faces when the walk in and receive a bag full of goodies to help them celebrate their special day. Some of the gifts are little fidgets that they can use in the classroom to help them focus, and a personalized card from me to them telling them how special they are. This is important, because some of my students come from traumatic situations and have incarcerated parents and need to feel extra special in the classroom. Thank you again for your kind donation!”

• Multiplication Incentives!

  Funded Jul 20, 2021

  Thank you for your generous donation to my multiplication incentives program in my classroom. My students have almost completely mastered their multiplication facts from 0-12. They are eager to learn their facts so that they can earn their reward. It has been such a joy as a teacher to see them work so hard to learn their facts and have fun doing it. It has also made them stronger in their math skills. Thanks to you, my students are even more successful in their learning and they're having fun doing it!”

• Desk Buddies!

  Funded Jul 20, 2021

  Thank you so very much for your donation to this project. My students have LOVED being able to have "pets" at their desks. Their behavior has greatly improved since we use these desk pets as a reward system in our classroom. The students genuinely enjoy collecting these pets and choosing little homes for them as well. Because of your generous donation my students strive to have excellent behavior in the classroom because they thoroughly enjoy collecting these desk pets! Thank you again for supporting our future!”

• Creating Lifelong Readers and Writers

  Funded Jul 19, 2021

  Thank you for your generous donation to my project. Our small reading groups have been very effective this year and the students thoroughly enjoy using the hands on materials to engage in their learning. There isn't a day that goes by that we don't use our dry erase boards, letter tiles and dry erase markers and circles. You have made learning fun and effective for me and my students. It has been amazing to watch them grow in their skills and see them enjoy their learning. Thank you again for your kind donation!”

• Starting off the School Year "Write!"

  Funded Jul 12, 2021

  Thank you so much for the donations to this project. We have been "writing machines" and couldn't have done it without your help. These materials have provided my students with adequate materials needed to create and enjoy all kinds of writings. Providing these materials has really helped me financially and the students have enjoyed using them and respecting them as well. It has been a joy to see them grow throughout the school year and not have to worry about having enough materials. Because of you my students have shown great improvements in their skills. Thanks again!”

• Birthday/Lost Tooth Celebration!

  Funded May 6, 2021

  Thank you for donating to this wonderful program in my classroom. The kids each have birthday bags that they get on their birthdays and when they lose a tooth it's a BIG deal in here! The special feeling that they get from the birthday bags and loose tooth necklaces are priceless. I never would have been able to afford these items on my own and I'm so thankful for donors like you who choose to donate to such an important cause. My goal as a teacher is to develop and build strong relationships with the students so that they feel safe and comfortable in my classroom and I believe these items are essential to that! Thank you again for your generous donation.”
