This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 11 other donors.Cups and Cakes
Funded Dec 15, 2018Thank you so much for your donation of measuring cups, cake pans, and class pitchers! We are so excited to be able to update our kitchens so that everyone has the exact same equipment, so there are no mix ups. This has been an absolutely wonderful experience for our students and they have enjoyed using professional grade measuring tools rather than the breakable plastic ones we previously had. The stainless steel cups and spoons look amazing and are uniform in measuring our ingredients, which helps ensure that everyone's recipes will come out the same when use correctly! Thank you again for reaching out and donating to our project, you have made a huge impact on the class of 2019!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Someone Who Cares and one other donor.Starting Swamp Studios Art Club!
Funded Oct 24, 2018Thank you so much for taking the time to choose our project. We have successfully received and begun utilizing all of the art boards, paints, brushes, and paper that we received. The founding members of our club did a happy dance when the materials came, and I wish I had gotten it on video! Our Swamp Studios Art Club is taking off wonderfully and we have had a very successful first semester. We are so excited to be able to offer this opportunity to all of the students at our school who are not currently enrolled in an art class but still want to chance to learn more about Art! We have used the hard boards to give us a sturdy foundation to hold our paper while practicing both acrylic and water color methods, and the drawing paper has been a huge help in giving us the ability to sketch out our ideas and work together on group projects. Your donations have made a huge impact on our club and we are so grateful for you!”

Super Storage for Staple Foods
Funded Sep 19, 2018Thank you, thank you, thank you!! The new storage you have helped provide our class was a TREMENDOUS help for this year's labs! I was able to purchase a 25lb bag of flour rather than the normal 5lb bags as well as an extra large bag of sugar rather than the smaller bags. This saved enough money in that purchase to allow us almost a full extra lab! The continued benefit of having extra storage will come into play throughout the year by allowing us to save on food costs and thus be able to host more labs. I am so grateful that you were willing to donate to our classes and my students were enthusiastic about the savings when we started comparing the costs of "regular" to "bulk" buys. Thank you again and I hope you continue to be generous to others in the future. You are making such an impact on these lives through your gifts!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Neukom Family Foundation and 3 other donors.Tasty Technology!
Funded Jul 17, 2018My students were absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to use an iPad in the kitchens. They have really enjoyed being able to use the iPad to make videos of the recipes, review their experiences, and look up new techniques. We have also used the iPad in our Child Development class to create Public Service Announcements for STDs, Teen relationships, and so much more! This iPad has been such a blessing to our class and I am so thankful that you all chose to donate to our project. Often times, the extra curriculars get overlooked but we are making such a huge impact on these children's' lives, thanks to wonderful people like you. Thank you, from the bottom of my new teacher heart, for all you have done for us! I hope you continue to bless others with your generosity! I'm excited to work towards a second iPad for our kitchens soon !!”
