  • You Only Get Better by Playing

    Funded Mar 8, 2019

    The students at our school were so excited to receive this new piece of playground equipment for our school! The drum set was installed while the students were on Spring Break. Their faces lit up with joy when they came back to school and saw the new drum set. There were squeals of excitement as they ran to play the drums. There were students playing the drums while others were dancing or directing the performance. As a teacher, I was emotional seeing how much this meant to them. Our kids deserve the best! We are beyond blessed for your generous donation towards this project. The students at our school is grateful for your support.

    Thank you again for making this dream come true.”

  • Sorting Out The Details

    Funded Nov 23, 2014

    Thank you for taking the time to support and believe in my students and myself by donating to this project. We can not thank you enough for your generosity. My students were so excited to see the new sorting centers. They could not wait to get started on sorting by different attributes. This center was easy for my students to set up and had several sorting activity cards that kept them engaged. The students were able to sort objects by size, texture, color, movement, and flexibility. My students have grown into better thinkers and able to determine different ways to sort the same objects. As partners the students discussed which pile had the most, least, and if they were equal. My students were able to work on several math skills through this center activity. I have seen a huge growth in my students after receiving these centers. Thank you for helping my students become successful and feeling confident in what they do.”
