  • Rescuing Our Writers

    Funded Aug 13, 2022

    Thank you so much for your contribution to my student’s organizational success! My juniors are the brightest, sweetest kids imaginable that just need a little help to stay on track. Their junior year will throw so much at them between state exams and SATs as they prepare for college. The binders will keep them organized and ready for all challenges.”

    With gratitude,

  • The NetResult 5

    Funded Aug 16, 2010

    I don't know how to say thank you, my students and I are in your debt for the fantastic netbook. Of course our school issued laptop slowly faded away a few days before the netbook arrived. Never has a package arrived with more excitement than that netbook. So far, we've used the computer everyday. From checking their grades to tracking the Civil War in United States.during, the computer has received a workout. We're soon to have a full class set and my students thank you for your help.

    Without donors like you my classroom would be a dull place. My students and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the generous donation”

    Funded Apr 12, 2010

    I don't know how to say thank you, my students and I are in your debt for the fantastic netbook. Of course our school issued laptop slowly faded away a few days before the netbook arrived. Never has a package arrived with more excitement than that netbook. So far, we've used the computer everyday. From checking their grades to tracking the Civil War in Russia during the Russian Revolution, the computer has received a workout. We've also loaded the software that you helped us purchase and that has become an invaluable classroom tool.

  • The Hole Story

    Funded Mar 8, 2010

    Just a short note to say thank you so much. Your generous support has enabled my ninth grade students to begin their projects. This year they will create guidebooks for an elementary or middle school class. The guidebooks will provide details about various places on the globe. Without your support my students would not have been able to begin this exciting project.

    Due to the recession and the unfortunate budget shortfalls, our school is faced with a serious lack of materials. While I have been able to provide the basics, the materials needed for an expansive project like this were hard to come by until your organization reached out and helped us.

    We look forward to many class meetings where we will be able to use the hole punch and computer programs to make our class more enjoyable. ”

  • Where in the world! Digital projector

    Funded Feb 2, 2010

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support of my classroom. The digital projector has been in use everyday since it arrived. The students have created powerful Power point Presentations detailing the fall of the Roman Republic and specifically the rise of Julius Caesar. My tenth grade class has explored the causes of Imperialism in Asia and the affect of the Opium Wars on the Chinese people. All of these adventures have taken place in full color thanks to the wonderful projector.

    The best part of receiving the projector is that my students have been able to take the lead in creating and showing projects to other students. I have been able to stand back and let the students try new things with the Smart board and the projector.

    With the ever growing budget cuts in our system, we face a daily battle to provide interesting, exciting and eye opening lessons. Your contribution has enabled me to enlarge the body of knowledge my students can enjoy. Once again, thanks for your assistance.”

    Ms. W.

I teach 9th and 10th grade Global History and Geography. My school is a design based school that attracts students from all over the city. My course is aimed at preparing students for college and using their knowledge of geography and world history in the real world. Support materials for Global History and Geography are costly and quickly gather dust. Moreover, students tend to be more naturally engaged with digital materials. I want to be able to coach my students as they wade through the geographical material available online. Without a digital projector in the classroom it's very difficult to demonstrate to students how to use history related software, how to navigate free online college resources, or how to use the Internet as a free history text.
