  • Listen Up and Be Responsible

    Funded Jan 19, 2022

    Thank you for the headphones! We're really needed them and they are very durable! We have been using them for years now and I am going to add more. Students sometimes have to use the same headphones as others which leads to more wear and tear, more quickly. Giving students their own headphones for the year will make them more responsible. Thanks you also for impacting my students will individualized support using these headphones. Some students may need to listen to an assessment or assignment .”

  • Butterflies Add Wonder to any Garden

    Funded Jun 13, 2024

    Oh wow! This was so unexpected! I really appreciate the person who did this! I know the children will enjoy their books. We have a butterfly pavilion that I’ve had for years some of the caterpillars escaped because there’s a hole in the net. We plugged it with a leaf. I can’t wait to tell them!

    Many many thanks and kind regards,”

  • Congratulations! You Earned It!

    Funded Mar 5, 2024

    Thank you so much for donating these items to our classroom! The students in my 5th grade classroom have many sensory issues so this will definitely help them so that they can be more successful throughout the day. Sometimes, I know that these resources will be very helpful towards the success of my students. I now know that they will have more opportunities to express themselves share their thoughts. Thank you all for your kindness, it is greatly appreciated.

    Motivating school students to succeed in math and Ela takes creative approaches and thanks to your generous donation this is now possible!”

  • Listen and Learn

    Funded May 7, 2021

    Our students have been able to see that there are people in the world who care enough to donate what they can to support their education. We were all so excited to request a crayola class pack of crayons, and a class set of Ticonderoga pencils because we love to write in 2nd grade. We also asked for scotch packing tape to display all of our hard work. We were even more elated to reduce our materials and it definitely showed while students worked on their stories.

    We named this project listen and learn because students were also listening to stories to gain ideas from authors. We requested headphones, but unfortunately they were unavailable at the time.

    Our class would like to thank you for your donations.”

Seeing these material will make them super excited to get to work!
