• Remodel Request for the Aztec Cafe

  Funded Feb 6, 2025

  Happy Spring! Thank you so much for bringing our project to life! Our new director chairs arrived quickly, and my fifth graders were absolutely thrilled! In fact, they were SO excited, they offered to assemble them on their own! I, too, was thrilled to see them taking initiative, and of course I allowed them to do so.

  Our new chairs look spectacular in our Aztec Cafe Corner, and it is still the most-requested area to work in. I love seeing my students read, collaborate, and create in our newly remodeled area, and I am filled with extreme gratitude for your support to make this dream come true!

  Thank you, as well, for the TpT gift card! It has come in handy to support and enhance our curriculum, and I am very appreciative. Thank you, again, for your kindness! 💕”

• Comet Cupids & the Kindness Trolley

  Funded Dec 31, 2024

  My fifth graders had the most amazing time with the resources you provided for this project! I obtained a staff list from our school secretary, then each student was assigned several people to create Valentine Grams for. Once they wrote their messages, we added a Luv Pop to each one and filed them by location, in preparation for the big day.

  The Kindness Trolley made its way across campus, and students delivered Valentine Grams proudly wearing their Kindness Ambassador shirts and visors. They had an incredible time, and were full of smiles! What joy those smiles gave to this teacher's heart, and it was your kindness and support that made this possible.

  My kids also loved making their own Valentine's Day bags for our card exchange, as well as their gifts, with the plastic hearts filled with goodies being a big hit! Thank you very much—I am so grateful to YOU for making this happen and allowing us to spread kindness across our campus. A special shout out to DCA for featuring our project, as well as Donna Halper, who made the final donation that took our project across the finish line. 🏫💕”

• Celebrating Diversity: Lunar New Year, Part Two

  Funded Dec 27, 2024

  Lunar New Year was celebrated from January 29 through February 13, and our class began studying about it by reading the amazing books you provided, watching videos, and participating in hands-on activities, including the special booklets that Panda Express so kindly provided for our class.

  We decorated our room with paper lanterns and dragons, and I was able to fill the red envelopes with both regular and chocolate coins, which students were so grateful for. We were also able to share red envelopes with our staff, as our Kindness Trolley made its way across campus, and everyone also received a fortune telling fish, which your donations made possible. We ended our celebration by watching a video on how to use chopsticks, as many students had never used them before, and enjoying rice made in the wonderful rice cookers you provided. Students loved creating different shapes with their snake cubes. It is the year of the snake, so these were perfect tangible reminders of our activities.

  Thank you so VERY much for making these extra special activities possible for my fifth graders! We thoroughly enjoyed learning about Lunar New Year and celebrating diversity, and we are extremely grateful to each of you for making this wish a reality. A special thank you to Panda Express for matching donations, as well as Dr. Toria Randle for making the final donation that took our project across the finish line. 💕”
