A Back Pack Event
Funded Aug 8, 2023Thank you for supporting this project financially. The response to COVID-19 has impacted all of us in unprecedented ways. Among the drastic changes that have taken place, school closures have brought many uncertainties and concerns for our community. This shift emphasized inequities in resources and access to supports.
As we prepare for the fall, some students will be returning to school for in-person instruction and will need supplies such as backpacks. Supplies like backpacks are incredibly versatile and excellent for both everyday use and traveling. With your donations, I was able to get book bags to support my students and celebrate with them during my birthday bbq.
Thank you again for your generosity and support. I promise you I will work very hard and eventually give something back to others.”
With gratitude,
Mr. Holmes
Light, Bright, and Full of Might!
Funded May 8, 2023Thank you for your generous donation and for bringing this project to life. These i-pads will be used for our driver's education program. A formal training program consisting of practical instruction will equip them with the correct driving skills and knowledge. In turn, these have allowed them to overcome obstacles in their own lives and prepare them for the real world.
Overall, both students and parents benefited from providing these students with driving lessons. This financial assistance provided by you was a great help and allows me to be the teacher my students need me to be beyond the classroom.
There is no amount of thanks that could match what you deserve for your support and generosity for this project. Nothing has been easy about this year, and we still face daunting challenges. But what you've been able to help us accomplish is phenomenal and allows for me to reach my students well beyond the classroom.
With your support, my students were able to live a dream and start driving classes.”

Funded Apr 20, 2023I am writing to express my sincere gratitude to you for making this possible. Thank you for donating to "Education has a laundry problem". Ultimately, supporting this project of laundry essentials will help build community with my students and parents.
We know that if students do not have the necessary things, it interferes with their learning. There are biological requirements for human survival, such as food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, and sleep. If these needs are not satisfied, the human body cannot function optimally. Maslow's Hierarchy of needs considered physiological needs the MOST important as all the other needs become secondary until these needs are met.
Thank you for investing in our students and the future of the Bronx.I am deeply appreciative of your support and generosity. Your financial assistance makes this work so much easier and allow for me to spend time concentrating on other aspects of teaching. I couldn't have done this work alone!”
