• Feeling Confident, Feeling Fresh

  Funded Nov 13, 2024

  On behalf of my students, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your generous donation of toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss and mouthwash. When the students saw the supplies, their faces immediately lit up with excitement and curiosity. Many of the them were eager to pick out their own toothbrushes, some even proudly showing off their favorite colors. It was heartwarming to see their enthusiasm, especially knowing that some of them do not always have access to these essential items at home.

  Beyond the excitement, there was also a sense of gratitude and appreciation. Some students expressed how much this would help their families, while others asked thoughtful questions about how to take better care of their teeth. Your kindness not only provided them with much-needed supplies but also sparked meaningful conversations about the importance of oral health. Thank you for making such a positive impact on their lives- you have given them confidence and care that will last far beyond the classroom.”

• Confidence is Beautiful

  Funded Nov 20, 2024

  I am so grateful for your generosity in providing hairbrushes, combs, hair ties, and scrunchies for my students. Many of them do not always have access to these basic items at home, and having them available in our classroom gives them a chance to take care of themselves with confidence. Something as simple as brushing their hair or securing it with a scrunchie can make a huge difference in how they feel about themselves throughout the day. Your kindness is helping to create a supportive environment where students feel valued and care for.

Some immediately grabbed what they needed, while others were amazed that these items were there just for them. I heard students saying "I needed this" and "This is so nice." It was heartwarming to see them feel more confident and happy just by having access to these small but meaningful necessities. Thank you for making such a positive and immediate impact in their lives- I truly appreciate your support.”

• A Snack a Day Will Keep the Hunger Away

  Funded Nov 20, 2024

  I can not thank you enough for your generosity in providing snacks for my students who need them. Many of my students come to school hungry or do not always have access to enough food throughout the day, and having snacks available makes a huge difference. Knowing they can grab something to eat when they are hungry allows them to focus better in class and feel more comfortable at school. Your kindness is helping to meet not just a physical need but also creating a sense of security for my students.

  When they first saw the snacks available, their reactions were priceless. Some immediately smiled and grabbed what they needed, while others hesitated, almost in disbelief that these were just for them. A few students even expressed how much it meant to them, sharing that they often feel hungry during the day. Because of you, they no longer have to worry about that. Your generosity has had a real and immediate impact, and I am so grateful for your support in making my classroom a place where every student feels cared for.”

• Care Cart to Provide for My Students

  Funded Nov 20, 2024

  I am incredibly grateful for your generosity in helping provide a care cart to store essential personal hygiene supplies for my students. Many of my students face challenges accessing basic care items, and having care cart readily available allows them to take what they need without worry or embarrassment.

Some were surprised that these items were available just for them, while others immediately expressed appreciation, saying how much they needed these essentials. It was heartwarming to see their sense of dignity and self-care grow simply by knowing they had access to these supplies.

• Birthday Cheer Goes a Long Way

  I can't thank you enough for your generosity in helping me provide birthday certificates, bracelets, and pencils for my students.

When they received their birthday surprises, their faces lit up with pure joy and excitement. Some were in disbelief, asking, "Is this really for me?" while others clutched their gifts tightly, smiling from ear to ear. It was heartwarming to see them feel so special and appreciated, even if just for a moment.

These small gestures have shown them that they are valued and celebrated, which boosts their confidence and sense of belonging.

• Notebooks, Binders and Looseleaf, Oh My!

  Funded Aug 26, 2024

  Thank you so very much for your generous donations. My students were so excited about learning that they were receiving their school supplies. They were provided with binders and notebooks. This allowed students to stay organized for school.

  Almost all of my students are new to this country and usually do not have the basic necessary items in general nevertheless for school. Almost all of my students come in without a jacket, bookbag, notebooks, binders or pencils. Thanks to your generous donations they were able to have some of the necessary items and help eliminate some financial concerns for their parents.

  Starting the year off right is crucial for student success. If you are not prepared, then you risk falling further and further behind. It truly takes a village and I am so grateful that you chose to support mine.”

• Pens, Pencils, Highlighters, Oh My!

  Funded Aug 14, 2024

  Thank you so much for your kindness and support for my classroom. My students were beyond excited to learn that our project had been funded!

  One way we have used the highlighters were while we were organizing our thoughts in preparation for our essay on The Nile River. We used our highlighters to identify our task and differentiate between our outside information and the documents.

  A second way we used our highlighters is when we take a test.This helps us to find key vocabulary in the reading and questions to eliminate answers that don't make sense .

  Lastly, the pens and pencils help us everyday with our notes.”
