  • Kindness Hoodies

    Funded Jan 8, 2024

    Thank you choosing this project to support! My wonderful students are absolutely thrilled that this project was funded!

    Due to some ordering issues, this project became even better! My students actually got to choose their own sweatshirt! They had a great time shopping for one that they like in their favorite color! I see them on Zoom, and they have been wearing them to show them off!

    Your help made my students so very happy! Thank you, again, for making a difference in my students' lives. We deeply appreciate your generous help!”

  • Books Needed

    Funded Dec 11, 2023

    Thank you for supporting this important book project! Your kind help means the world to my students and I!

    My fourth and fifth graders were delighted to get their own copies of the required reading books! They thought is was really cool that they received a copy of each one, and didn't have to make a choice! They are reading these wonderful, award winning books and just loving them!

    Your help has made an incredible impact on students. They know that you care! And that has made them feel so special. Thank you for supporting my vision!”

  • Kindness Counts

    Funded Dec 11, 2023

    Thank you for your kind and generous donation to this project. My students were absolutely delighted when I told them the good news! They were thrilled to receive their poster/table cloth and a brand new set of markers.

    Because my students are learning at home, they do not have many of the experiences students in the classroom receive. This project leveled the playing field, so to speak. My kiddos had a wonderful time coloring these huge posters with their families. Parents thanked me for including something that they could do together, aside from regular course work. Everyone really enjoyed coloring!

    I am so grateful for your help. This project was such a hit and enable me to spread our district motto of Cultivating Creative Kindness. Thank you again for your amazing support!”

    Funded Dec 11, 2023

    Thank you so much for choosing to donate to our gift card project! My students and I so deeply appreciate your kindness and incredible generosity. They are thrilled to earn these gift cards!

    Since receiving the gift cards, I have seen Zoom attendance improve. In addition, more of my kiddos are striving to complete their weekly course work on time. This is helping to keep them accountable for their own learning. My kiddos look forward to Mondays, when I announce the students that earned a gift card for the previous week.

    Your help has made a huge impact. My students are learning, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you for making all of this possible.”

    Thank you so much for your very kind and generous donation to this fun project! My amazing students and I are extremely grateful for your support.

    All of my students were able to select a game or two to take home this year. I could tell this meant so much to all of them. Some of my students had a difficult time deciding what to pick, but all of them were happy with their choices! They continue to have a great time with their families.

  • Postage Required

    Funded Nov 26, 2023

    Thank so very much for bringing this crucial project to life! I am so thankful for your kind and generous donations!

    My students are really working to earn a gift card this quarter. I see the enthusiasm in their faces everyday. Have the postage to mail it to them is making a huge difference! They LOVE getting actual mail! Because they are working so hard, I make it special and they like to share what I wrote with their families. Some students are even displaying all of the note cards they have received on a special shelf in their house.

    I am so grateful to have your support. Thank you, again, for changing my students' lives! You are our hero!”

Most of my kiddos are now working harder so that they can earn one of the gift cards! Attendance has been nearly perfect since I told them as well!

    Funded Oct 12, 2023

    Thank you for your helping in funding this project! My students and I are so very grateful for your kind and generous support!

    The Kindness Journals are even better than I expected! We talk about them often and my kiddos enjoy sharing ideas from them. Parents have let me know that they are helping with social emotional health as well.

    The covers for the books are just amazing. They are so easy to apply and protect the books very well. I know that they will last a lot longer now that they are protected.
