  • Our Special Needs Class Needs a Special Printer for Success

    Funded Dec 1, 2020

    I would love to say thank you to you for your amazing support to my classroom. Because of you I was able to differentiate and provide my students with the support they needed in order to share with their families the amazing work that they are doing in class. In addition to this they were able to create amazing memorable memories for the holidays. We were able to make ornaments for them to take home and share with their families. My students were overwhelmed and the parents very grateful. They mentioned that the gifts they received was "hay que bonito, me gusta mucho." It was cute and adorable and that their child had never made their own ornaments before. Thank you so much for supporting my students in getting materials they need to build memories that will last a lifetime. My students displayed their amazing presentations on the smart board that they created using scratch and google slides. They did an amazing job on their presentations. Thank you once again for your generosity.”

  • Warm Hands, Warm Hearts!

    Funded Nov 9, 2020

    I am truly grateful with your support! you have supported our students in getting gloves, hoodies, umbrellas, head wrap, neck warmer, socks to keep warm in this cold weather. My students had something to wear during this storm. Thank for helping me get them ready for this cold winter. Many students walk to school on a daily basis and some usually don't come with gloves! It gets very cold during the winter so it is important students have these resources. Some may not have them, while others might lose them. It's important they have these extra gloves, hats, sweaters to take home with them when needed to help keep them warm on their walks home from school. Parents who don't have the resources can also come and take extra hats or gloves. You have truly benefited everyone and keep everyone warm, especially on the coldest of days. Thank you because you parents who don't have the resources were able to come and take extra hats or gloves. Thank you for keeping everyone warm, especially on the coldest of days.

    It's also very important for students to have a safe place to go inside the school where they can warm up.”

  • Bins for All the Kids! Say What?

    Funded Nov 30, 2020

    J crew Thank you so much for your amazing support! These bins that I am requesting these storage boxes have made a difference in their learning because now I will be able to have their learning material out for them to engage and have an organized classroom for them.

    Especially in 5th grade, we have to be organized. There has to be a certain place for everything and with these storage boxes, I am able to achieve that. With the storage boxes, I am able to place a picture of the manipulatives that are inside the storage box. Therefore, my students will know what goes inside that box and where the storage box belongs for an organized 5th-grade classroom.

    Having these storage bins will make a huge difference to help promote a safe, clean environment for my students to learn in.

    Thank you so much for your generous support of my project! This project will have a direct benefit for our students! Thank you for supporting our school, our class, and especially our wonderful students!!!💗 Thank you for helping us reach the finish line 🚀 We are truly grateful for your generosity and continued support #KindnessCounts”

I am a fifth grade teacher in a low-income public school in Bronx, NY. I have been lucky enough to have a motivated group this year, and I am very proud of the strides they have made in reading. I have a tried with some success to set up a leveled library for them, but some of my students are reading at a higher level. Sadly, I do not have enough books for them to read past their current level. On the other end, I have some struggling readers who read at low levels and I have few books for them to choose from. I want my students to succeed in reading, but they need more books. The resources provided at my school are not adequate enough to meet their needs. My higher-level readers have resorted to reading lower-level books and my lower functioning readers are reading books above their reading level.
