  • Water, Water Everywhere!

    Funded Dec 6, 2016

    My students and I would like to thank you for your generosity. We are very excited to start using our water bottle filling station once it's install in the cafeteria. We hope this will instill a better eating lifestyle that will promote drinking more water and less carbonated beverages. Our PTA has purchased school water bottles to promote the usage of this new station. We are looking forward to receiving this wonderful gift. We hope you have an amazing holiday season and a happy new year.”

  • Musical instruments For My First Music Classroom

    Funded Nov 7, 2009

    The instruments in my classroom have opened doors for my students that they have never had before. My students faces brighten so much when they enter the room and see the instruments laid out on the carpet. I hear whispers "YES!! We are going to drum today", "Boomtubes are out". It makes me happy to know they are excited about learning music. Some of my kindergarten students are beginning to read simple notation.

    This has also effected me as teacher, I am excited to come and teach on an instrument day. It brings me such joy to know my students are enjoying music while learning. It also has helped many students who have some motor skills difficulties. The instruments have changed things more than I ever expected to do so.

    I want to thank you again for all your support and generous donation to my music classroom and more important to my students, who I know truly appreciate and have learned a true life lesson of giving to others.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Parra

I teach in New York City at a wonderful school. My school is very supportive to the arts but due to budget cuts my music budget is very small this year. So I have decided to raise money and whatever help I can get so my students have the things they need in order to shine in their performances, that they have worked so hard to prepare for.
