• Empowering Families and Students with Essential Tools

  Funded Jan 13, 2025

  Thank you for your generosity in helping us empower families and create a more inclusive learning environment! With the laminator, Cricut Joy, Amazon Echo, and portable printer, we are now able to produce engaging, accessible materials that strengthen family advocacy and connect our Bronx community with vital special education resources.

  These tools have already made an incredible impact. The laminator ensures our training materials last for repeated use, while the Cricut Joy allows us to create professional displays that capture attention and encourage participation. The Amazon Echo enhances accessibility during workshops, making presentations smoother, and the portable printer provides immediate, high-quality resources for families—no matter where they are.

  Beyond family engagement, these materials are also benefiting our students by allowing us to create durable, interactive learning aids that support their unique educational needs. Your support has truly made a difference, bridging the gap between families and schools while fostering a stronger, more connected community.

  We are incredibly grateful for your belief in our mission. Thank you for making a lasting impact on our students, their families, and the future of our inclusive learning environment!”

• Sensory Pathways to Language Learning and Inclusion

  Funded Jan 13, 2025

  Thank you for your generosity in bringing essential social-emotional and sensory materials to our preschool classroom! Because of your support, our students—many of whom are refugees, immigrants, English language learners, or have special needs—now have tools to help them feel more secure, express themselves, and engage in meaningful interactions.

  The interactive sensory wall, sensory mirror, and sequin board have already made a tremendous impact. These materials provide calming, hands-on experiences that encourage communication, creativity, and emotional regulation. The sequin board, in particular, has sparked conversations about colors, shapes, and emotions, helping our students develop their language and social skills in a natural and engaging way.

  For children adjusting to a new environment, these sensory tools serve as a bridge to connection and learning. Your kindness has created a more inclusive, welcoming space where every child can feel valued and understood.

  We are so grateful for your support and for believing in the potential of our young learners. Thank you for making a difference in their lives!”

• LEGO Learning: Building Math, STEM, and Teamwork in Pre-K

  Funded Nov 30, 2024

  Thank you for bringing the joy of hands-on learning to our Pre-K classroom! Because of your generosity, our students now have LEGO sets that inspire creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking while strengthening fine motor and problem-solving skills.

  With these materials, our young learners are engaging in exciting activities that reinforce color sorting, teamwork, and STEM concepts.

These experiences are not only fun but also essential for their social-emotional and academic growth.

  We are incredibly grateful for your generosity and for believing in our students. Thanks to you, our classroom is a place where play and learning go hand in hand, helping our little learners build skills that will support them for years to come!”

  Thanks to your generosity, our classroom has been transformed into an interactive, hands-on learning space where my preschoolers with special needs can explore, create, and grow!

  With the interlocking 3-D puzzles, LEGO kits, kinetic sand, and mini manipulatives, my students are strengthening their fine motor skills while engaging in meaningful play.

  Funded Nov 13, 2024

  From the bottom of my heart, thank you for making this project a reality! Your generosity has provided our special needs prekindergarten classroom with a MacBook, a tool that will open doors to new learning experiences for my young learners.

For many of our children, access to technology like this is rare, making your contribution even more meaningful.

  Beyond benefiting our students, this MacBook will also allow me to better track academic progress and create individualized learning plans—ensuring each child receives the support they need to thrive. Your kindness is truly making a lasting impact, not just in our classroom today, but in these students' futures.

• Books to Inspire: Building a Library for Young Learners

  Funded Oct 16, 2024

  Thank you so much for your incredible generosity in supporting our classroom library project! Your contribution has brought an abundance of joy and opportunity to our pre-K students in the Bronx.

  With your support, we've been able to create a library filled with diverse books that reflect our students' unique backgrounds and experiences. These books are not only enhancing our classroom learning but also making their way into homes, allowing families to join in the joy of reading together. For many of our students, this is their first opportunity to access bilingual books, early literacy resources, and inclusive stories, all of which are vital in supporting their development.

  The impact of this project is already evident. Our young learners are more engaged during reading time, and families have shared their excitement about having quality books at home. You've helped build a bridge between home and school, strengthening our community's commitment to learning.

• Printing Our Visions for Display

  Funded Jul 25, 2024

  A big thank you! The printer toner has enabled us to personalize learning experiences tailored to each student's needs, especially in our low-income, Title 1 pre-K class with many non-English speakers and students with special needs.

  Students have been eager to engage in activities and enjoy seeing themselves in pictures posted around the classroom, which greatly improved their confidence and participation in class.

  The printer and ink we're using has become an indispensable part of our classroom, allowing us to provide an engaging, inclusive, and adaptive learning environment. Your donations make this possible, and for that, we are deeply grateful.”
