  • Adapting to Our New Norms

    Funded Dec 1, 2021

    A heartfelt thank you to all of you for your donations that funded my class project " Adapting to Our New Norms." My students and I were elated when we learned that our project was funded. They were aware that I had created a project for us and I kept them abreast with it's progress. We all anxiously awaited the arrival of the materials, and when they came, it was hard for them to contain their excitement. They were thrilled to help me unpack the boxes.

    We were especially grateful for the disinfecting wipes and tissues, they were used to help to keep us safe and protect us from harmful bacteria and viruses.

    My students were able to use the school supplies to complete their assignments and projects, since they were now equipped with the necessary tools. They recently used their markers, and construction papers to create a huge banner for our school's pep rally for the NYS State Tests.

    Your donation to this project means a whole lot to us. I believe that knowing that they have the necessary tools has motivated my students to work harder. I am humbled by your kindness to me and my students.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Hercules

  • Essentials for Successful Remote Learning

    Funded Dec 2, 2020

    I am extremely grateful to everyone who made donations to my class project. When I shared with my students that our project was funded, they were very excited and they too expressed their gratitude to you all. Your willingness to contribute clearly shows how much you care about students and education. Because of the pandemic this year, our schedules have changed and it is very challenging for some students. However, because of your generosity, my students will have the supplies they during remote learning. Thank you all!!!”

  • Learners + School Supplies = Successful Remote Learning

    Funded May 7, 2020

    My students and I extend a hearty thank you to all of you or your generosity. They were very excited when they learned that they were going to get much needed school supplies. After receiving their school supplies they were able to participate in their weekly Art class, a program they thoroughly enjoyed while they were in school because they had access to Art supplies. However, during remote learning many of them were frustrated when they were unable to complete their assignments because they did not have the materials required. In addition, there was also an increase in student engagement after the students received their supplies, they were also able to use the supplies to complete assignments and class projects in other the subject areas.

    Your kindness towards our students will always be remembered.

    Thank you.

    Ms. Hercules.”

My fifth-grade special education students and I bid hasty goodbyes in March, not realizing we wouldn't be back in school for the rest of the year. My students are struggling during lessons because they don't have the right tools to participate in activities. We just started an art program- Studio in a School. My students love it but they don't have the right materials. I was moved to see them try to make collages last week, without glue and colored paper. These supplies, like markers, paper, pencils, and glue along with coloring books will motivate and engage students now.
