  • Supplies to Start the Year

    Funded Aug 2, 2022

    Thank you so much for getting to us just in time! Sometimes you never know just how far your impact will go. Well, let me tell you, each donation has gone a long way. There isn't a single day that my students do not use the resources provided to them.

    From notebooks to journals, folders to highlighters, every item we have received has made the learning process so much easier. Students should be able to simply focus on learning and by providing us with these items that is exactly what we are able to do.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Tavarez

  • Crunch Time

    Funded Nov 30, 2022

    Thank you so much for giving us something great to keep us on track until the end of the year. Students have worked hard and tirelessly for the first half of the year. This is just the incentive that they need to keep on going. Thank you so much for thinking of us.”

  • Snack Packs for Rejuvenation

    Funded Dec 31, 2021

    I hope that you know the impact that you have had on my students. I was always asked why I never used the snacks as simply rewards. However, I had to think about it. Students will approach me at 7 am because they are genuinely hungry. It would be unfair to only give to "well-performing" students. The snacks are a need and the students are very grateful for them. They always ask "miss, where are you getting these snacks?" "Are you selling them?" and I'd simply reply "No, they're all for you guys and were donated from groups of strangers."”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Tavarez

  • Yummy Incentives

    Funded Aug 27, 2021

    My students were both shocked and excited after having received something as simple as snacks to make their day go round'. They couldn't believe that someone really made this donation to them personally and that strangers they knew not, delivered items for them. They are now able to go throughout the day without feeling hungry and are also be to be rewarded for a good job done.

    They are now even wanting to share with those who aren't even in our class but those who also need a cheer-up.

    For your kindness and generosity, we thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Tavarez

This project will assist in keeping my students focused and engaged in learning. Many students come to class hungry. This is a huge distraction and it prevents them from being fully engaged in learning. Snacks are also a great source of motivation. Whether it may be chips, crackers, or starbursts, students jump at the idea of being able to earn something when they truly do put in work to increase their creativity, collaboration, and communication skills. Students deserve to be rewarded and having snacks are the perfect incentive to keep them going. The past year has been interesting and stressful. Students need motivation and engagement to continue learning. I will be able to not only incentivize but also provide support where it may be needed. Incentives can impact a student's emotional needs and can positively impact their academic performance. The incentives will be used throughout this school year.
