    I am truly amazed at the generosity you have shown to our class! My students are in their very first year of school and have so much to learn. In order to learn, we needed learning materials and you helped to provide that.

  • Help My Students Learn Through Play Everyday!

    Funded Jan 23, 2023

    Play is essential part of early childhood education. Children learn social skills and academic skills through play everyday. In order to learn through play, teachers need to have very specific learning toys, supplies, and materials that are intentionally chosen so children can learn various social and academic skills. Thanks to your generous donations, we are able to have appropriate play materials in my class for my students to enjoy and learn with! We are all so grateful for your generosity. Thank you for helping my students learn through play everyday!”

  • Back to the Basics with Your Help!

    Funded Nov 29, 2022

    The "basics" in a classroom are so important. We use these items to make learning materials for the children to use in the classroom. We also print up family notices and pictures to use in class. It may not be fancy but it is essential to have basic supplies such as ink, paper, index cards, etc. I am so grateful you have helped me get the items I need to help children in their daily activities, help them learn, and help me communicate with families. Thank you so much for generous donation to our classroom, I greatly appreciate it!”

    Thank you so much for donating STEM learning materials to our class! The children have learned about weather, seasons, animals, homes, light, water, and now plants with these materials!

  • Let's Connect Learning in School to Learning at Home!

    Funded Apr 25, 2022

    This was a tough year! Due to covid there were many instances of quarantine and classroom closures. I wanted to ensure my students had hands-on materials at home that they could use to learn with if they were in this predicament and you helped me get those learning materials to them. They were so excited to receive their writing materials, fun workbooks, and art materials to use at home. Each child took home their bag with a huge smile on their face. The best part is they can use these materials over the summer as well to stop a summer slide from occurring. My students and I thank you so much for your generous donations. We are so grateful for your help!”

    Funded Apr 10, 2022

    You have no idea how happy and excited my students were to receive new dramatic play materials! Your donations have brought them so much joy! They used the dramatic play materials to learn important academic and social concepts during center time such as taking turns, cooperation, conflict resolution, being a good friend, sharing, counting, identifying numbers, identifying money, learning beginning concepts of division, fractions, adding and subtracting. They had so much fun while they learned! They played and learned with these items every day. My students and I are so grateful and thankful that you helped us get the new learning materials we need.

    Thank you so much for helping us getting cozy, comfy cushions for our meetings times! The children were so excited to receive them and love them! They now sit very comfortably while on the floor for various activities throughout the school day. They even take them when they visit our specialty classes holding the handles the cushions have. They are very light, portable, durable, and have been very helpful! We are also learning to say and understand colors in Spanish when we use them.
