  • Encouraging Learning With Prizes and Positivity

    Funded Nov 13, 2024

    I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you for your incredibly generous donation to our classroom project. With your support, I was able to restock the squishy toys, slime, and emoji keychains that have become such a motivating and joyful part of our classroom reward system. My students absolutely love these prizes, and they make such a difference in keeping them engaged and excited about learning.

    Your thoughtful contribution will help create an atmosphere of positivity and fun in the classroom, encouraging my students to continue doing their best while rewarding them for their hard work and accomplishments. These little treasures keep them motivated and bring big smiles, and it's so rewarding to watch their excitement when they earn a special prize!

    Thank you for being such an important part of fostering a love of learning in our classroom. Your support means the world to us and truly makes each day of learning even brighter!”

  • Art Resources for the Art Classroom and Beyond!

    Funded Mar 12, 2023

    Thank you so much for the resources for our Art class! We were able to get color mixing charts, posters on composition, clay modeling tips posters, and more. Here are some examples from one of the projects that we did using the supports purchased. My students were so excited to create these amazing clay creations. They used the color mixing chart that we downloaded and printed in a large scale format for students to use and they used the chart that instructed them techniques in clay building. Your support for our Art classroom is so much appreciated by me and by my students! Thank you again for your help and love of the arts!!”

  • Encouraging Hard Work and Positive Behavior with Student Prizes

    Funded Mar 4, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generosity and support for our art classroom. The prizes that were purchased have been helping to encourage hard work and focus in the classroom! Take a look at the pictures of my students working to give feedback to their classmates on their artwork. Students have been motivated and encouraged to focus with the help of these prizes. Many of the prizes are also fidget toys, which help students to increase their focus, while releasing extra energy and helping them to gain an outlet for their pent up jitters! I truly thank you for your help and support and hope that you might consider supporting us again in the future! THank you again!”

  • Basic Art Supplies for Paper Crafts and Drawing

    Funded Jun 29, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generosity and for supporting our classroom! My students have been able to create amazing collages using the paper that was given to us. Kindergarten students learned about 3 dimensional paper sculptures and practiced techniques, such as rolling, folding, tearing, fringing, spiraling, and more. All of these techniques have helped them to increase their fine motor skills, spacial awareness in composition with respect to creating their artwork. I am so thankful that you have helped us to get the supplies that we need and hope that you consider supporting the arts and art education in the future!Thank you again!”

  • Art Lessons for the Art Class

    Funded Feb 17, 2023

    Thank you so much for your donation that made it possible for my students to have these amazing quality resources! The materials are beautiful and are inspiring my students to explore, create, and learn all while creating original pieces of artwork.

    When I told my students that resources were being donated to our classroom, they were so excited and couldn't wait until the materials were delivered! When the children saw the lessons, they got even more excited and could not wait to read them and look at the amazing illustrations. So far, they have learned about various artists, art movements, as well as different techniques for creating beautiful pieces of art.

    Your generosity means so much to teachers like myself and to the students that benefit from the donations. The joy that my students feel just knowing that someone cared so much about our classroom and about their education was amazing! These supplies have and will continue to help my students learn and create one of a kind masterpieces!

  • Hand Sanitizer, Disinfectant Spray and Lysol Wipes = CLEAN !

    Funded Oct 28, 2022

    Thank you so much for the supplies to keep our classrooms and school germ free so that students can stay well. We all know that cold and flu season has hit hard and our best defense to keep students in school is not only to wear masks, but also to keep desks, surfaces, and supplies sanitized. I have been using the lysol wipes and spray to clean materials and supplies and students have been using the hand sanitizer before using the clean supplies. Hopefully all of these efforts will help us to ensure student attendance stays up and kids stay in a clean and safe learning environment. I truly thank you for your generosity and kindness!!”

  • Green Space = a Creative Space in the Art Classroom!

    Funded Nov 30, 2022

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful and generous donations! You have liven and brightened up the art classroom so much. The inspiration of having plants around has helped students to become more creative. Not only is it inspiring creativity in the artwork, but it is helping to create a more serene and peaceful atmosphere. All of the students, as they walk into the art classroom, appreciate the new decor. To be able to have faux plants to use in still life pictures has been something we have been so wishing for! Your generosity and support is so much appreciated! Thank you again!!”

  • Bright Minds! Lighting Up the Art Classroom for Creativity

    Funded Oct 19, 2022

    We received the lights so quickly and got them right up to transform our space into the amazingly creative art space that it now is!

    Students want to leave the main lights off so they can draw and create in an atmosphere that inspires and relaxes them. Working this way has, even in such a short time, altered their moods, their outlook, and their perception of the space.

    The new LED lights add pops of color throughout the room to help students to see the possibilities in their own imagination. I have had students in the past week, simply walk into the room and be speechless at how colors and fun it looks now.

    Your generosity, support, and thoughtfulness has not only transformed the space, but also their outlook. Thank you so very much for supporting my art room with your donation!!”

Our school is located in a busy neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. We are a small school, yet our school population is quite culturally diverse. This diversity actually brings us all closer together as a community. All of the student in the school are eager to learn. When my students arrive at my art room, just by the look on their faces, I can tell that their curiosity and interest are already peaked!
