  • Bringing Learning Home

    Funded Feb 19, 2025

    We are all incredibly grateful for your donations to our classroom project. If you could only see my kid's faces of excitement, as we opened the boxes with all the new Lego building blocks you would understand how important this project was and how much it meant to us.

    To know that there are still people like you who selflessly give to others in need and especially children, shows me that there is still a lot of hope for these wonderful kids.

    While most of our families don't have the means to provide their children with the right tools to reach their academic abilities, with your help, we have made this a special gift for them to take home and enjoy building memories with their parents and their siblings while learning. Without your help, my students would have never had these resources that will allow them to flourish. Our Heartfelt thanks to you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Villar

  • Get Ready to Dig In

    Funded Apr 3, 2023

    We are all very grateful for your donations to our classroom project. Our favorite area, Sand and Water, was shaking and leaking, and my students were losing interest in playing there. When I told them about the idea of making a project to try to salvage our favorite area for our classroom, they got very excited.

    If you could only see my kid's faces of excitement, when the boxes of all the new materials began to arrive, you would understand how important a project like this was and how much it meant to them. The new sand and water materials you help fund for my youngsters will help boost their imaginations and our favorite area will be very busy again.

    Without your help, my students would have never had these vital resources that allows them to flourish. To know that there are still people like you who selflessly give to others in need and especially children, shows me that there is still a lot of hope for these wonderful kids. Our Heartfelt thanks to you!”

  • It’s Nap Time!

    Funded Apr 3, 2023

    We are all incredibly grateful for your donations to our new classroom carpet and cots. If you could only see my kid's faces of calm and tranquility while they sleep, you would understand how important this project was and how much it meant to us. Watching my students rest on their new and comfortable cots after a long morning of learning is priceless. To know that there are still people like you who selflessly give to others in need and especially children, shows me that there is still a lot of hope for these wonderful kids.

    "We are immensely grateful for your contribution to our classroom. Our Heartfelt thanks to you!"”

  • Continue to Grow with STEM

    Funded Aug 29, 2023

    We are all very grateful for your donations to our classroom project. If you could only see my kid's faces of excitement, as we opened the boxes with the new jumbo magna tiles, as well as the geometry light-up activity centers you would understand how important this project was and how much it meant to us. Our new additions have been so exciting and the children are over the moon. Watching my students work together as their imaginations are flying high while they get creative building is priceless. To know that there are still people like you who selflessly give to others in need and especially children, shows me that there is still a lot of hope for these wonderful kids.

    Our school and program continue to face challenges for the upcoming year, so without you help, my students would have never had these resources that allows them to flourish.”

    Thank you so much for supporting my students with these great donations. Our dramatic play area looks amazing with the new kitchen. This furniture is a great addition as it helped us create a cozy home-like environment where our children can use their imaginations and share experiences, from their home life.

  • On Your Mark, Get Set, Write!

    Funded Apr 3, 2023

    Thank you so much for supporting my students with these great donations. Having a designated area in the classroom with a writing center, where the children can reach all the materials as they need, have given my students more freedom to explore with their peers and get creative as they learn. They are enjoying the new writing desk and are hard at work writing and learning. I have seen a great improvement in my student's work and spirit as they show their enthusiasm while learning. It is amazing how much of a difference one person's generosity can make on the lives of many young individuals. A great thank you on behalf of my youngsters for your thoughtfulness and kindness.”

My students are eager preschoolers from the ages of 3 to 5 who are from many different cultural backgrounds. My students are very energetic and have a big appetite for learning. They are inner city, urban kids and most are low income class kids from hard working families. Growing up in a poor urban city is difficult no matter what age you are. When you are as young as my students every little incident can have a tremendous impact in their life. I want my students to concentrate on the good things that life has to offer. Recreating images of happy moments are memories that are unforgettable. Having a vast variety of choices of materials and supplies in the classroom will inspire my students to use their sensory skills by exploring and creating those life experiences the will be treasure forever.
