    Funded Dec 17, 2024

    Thank you so much for donating to our classroom! Through your donations we are able to provide our students with extra special things we otherwise would not be able to provide our students! The class was so excited to receive the box with all new items to use during our stations. Your donation allowed us to give the students new wood puzzles and blocks. It also allowed us to make learning more fun with counting puzzles, and new letter activities. We are so grateful to have the support of people like you!”

  • So Fresh So Clean in Life Skills

    Funded Aug 5, 2024

    Thank you so much for your donations to our classroom. Through your generous donation to our classroom we were able to provide basic necessities to our students. The items you donated such as deodorant and body wash will help us teach our students about the importance of hygiene. It also allows us to send home hygiene items with our students who otherwise wouldn't have access to these types of items. Thank you for always supporting our classroom and our special students. We would not be able to create the safe space we have without your donations and support.”

  • Toileting Time in Life Skills!

    Funded Dec 4, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to our class. Through your donations we are able to provide the students in our class with the diapers they need for potty training. Our class has very unique needs that we would not be able to meet without donators like you. The diaper donations we receive allow us to give our students the opportunity to toilet train without limited supplies. Our students can have accidents, and learn without being unable to be changed comfortably. We are so grateful to be able to provide our students with the supplies we need and we owe it all to donors like you!”

  • Fabulous Fun Flex Seating!

    Funded Sep 20, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to our classroom! Through your donations we were able to create a great area for reading, ipad work, and a rest and reset area. Our classroom is SO excited to have such fun and comfy seating. They were yelling with excitement when they saw the bean bags! By donating rest mats for us, we are able to provide the students with a spot to rest when they are not feeling well, or are having a rough day. Our classroom is grateful for donors like you for all you do for our classroom. If we did not have the support of people like you we don't know what we would do! Thank you again for your continued support!”

  • iPad Protection!

    Funded May 9, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to our classroom! Through your donations we were able to protect our long awaited Ipads! Your donations have allowed us to ensure that we will get the longest use out of our Ipads. The Ipad cases will allow us to protect our ipads when they are accidentally dropped or thrown. Ipads are extremely important to learning in our classroom. They allow us to learn in new and different ways, and connect and use apps to we would normally not be able to use.

  • Dancing In My New Shoes!

    Funded Apr 16, 2023

    Thank you so much for your donations to our classroom! Through your donations and support I am able to provide my students with their basic needs. Our classroom becomes so excited when we are sent a package with items for our room. The specialized shoes you donated to our classroom allow our students to have access to comfortable shoes that they otherwise could not afford. It allows our students in leg braces to be able to wear shoes that are more "stylish" than the shoes they can normally wear with their AFOs. Thank you again for supporting us in our academic and life needs!”

  • Potty Training Party!

    Funded Mar 13, 2023

    Thank you so much for your kind donations to our classroom! Through your donations, we are able to potty train our students so that they are able to gain their own independence. The students in our classroom require special support that a regular education room doesn't need, and with your help we are able to create a more inclusive setting for our students to learn and grow comfortably. By providing us with pull up we are able to help our students learn how to use the toilet, without worrying about them having an accident. This allows our students to be comfortable, and not feel nervous about potty training. Thank you again for supporting our classroom and providing them with their basic needs!”
