    Funded Nov 8, 2023

    Words can not express how grateful I am for your desire to help fun early education materials for preschoolers. With the right materials, they can learn and discover new things. These building materials will create a vast array of exploration and discovery.

  • Sensational Sensory Play

    Funded Aug 15, 2023

    Words can not describe how thankful my students are to you for donating to this project.

    Building this center this year has been amazing. The students in my class are so creative and I love being able to use the large bins and the many diverse items to watch their face light up with discovery.

    It feels as though I am learning from them as they explore and ask questions about the habitats and the animals. They are loving being able make mountains and other items in the sand and playing with the kits.

    They are truly learning and growing with these materials and it is all thanks to you and your willingness to participate in donating to further enhance the early education of children.”

  • Learn & Discover With Food

    Funded Aug 9, 2023

    You can not imagine the joy that the children in my classroom feel when they play with the kitchen play items that were purchased through your donations!

    The joy in their faces and the language that is coming out of them as they prepare and serve the food to their friends and teachers is priceless. They come up with the cutest and sweetest things for our eating enjoyment.

    Some of the food is rotated and they come in every week excited to see what treasures they can find in the kitchen. They are working on service to others far greater than I could have imagined. Thank you for your willingness to support these types of programs.”

    Funded Sep 6, 2023

    I am grateful that you love early childhood education as much as I do. It takes amazing people like yourself to help fund classroom materials and furniture to help make learning safe and happy.

  • Headphones With Microphones for Enhanced Individual Learning

    Funded Jan 23, 2022

    Thank you so much for your desire to help with this project to get headphones for each individual child in my classroom. The ones that we were sharing did not have microphones and were falling apart.

    These new ones made it so that my students were able to record their voices reading passages and listen and improve on their skills. They also learned to take care of their headphones and be accountable for their condition.

    With the way that technology has become so much of what we do, these students are now able to have a better foundation and knowledge of how to use it.”

  • My Supplies Right Where I Need Them!

    Funded Oct 23, 2020

    Thank you so much for your desire to help our school by funding projects like this one. It is so fulfilling to know that there are people and companies that value education as much as we do!

    Young children need a lot of manipulatives to help them learn and discover new things everyday. These items work best when organized and readily accessible to students.

    Having these new bins in our classroom has made a huge impact on keeping things where they belong. These were the perfect fit for the shelf unit that is currently in my room and make it so nice to be able to see the manipulatives needed for our daily lessons.

    Thank you for your donation and may you be blessed for your kindness!”

  • Diverse Books To Teach Inclusion For All

    Funded Aug 11, 2020

    I am so grateful for you and all you do to help with the education of students at this difficult time. With all that is going on in the world around us it is nice to know that kids have a safe place to go everyday. School gives them structure and a sense of belonging.

    With all of the culture that is in our classroom and school, these books will help them to see everyone is unique and loved.

    Every one of these books have been read in my class this year and many teachers have also used them in their classrooms and LOVE them! We are so grateful to have people like you that are willing to support projects like this one to get more books into our classrooms to teach culture and diversity.”

  • Germ Free STEM Fun With Magnets

    Funded Feb 24, 2021

    What a great day we had today! My students were so excited to see the box that had been delivered to our classroom. I gave them hints to find out what was inside. They couldn't wait to open it up.

    We brainstormed how to use the new magnetic boards and they came up with many ways that I had not thought of when writing for your donations.

    We were able to use it for language arts by making letters and spelling words and then during math we used it to make some shapes that went with the unit that we are currently working on. It was so nice to be able to wipe everything clean between uses without worrying about ruining them.

    Words can not express how grateful we are to have people like you that see the need and offer your donations to bring these kind of moments to our children everyday! Please accept our heartfelt thanks for helping out our classroom today!”

  • Storytelling Puppets for Student Success

    Funded May 29, 2020

    Words can not do justice to tell you how grateful I am for your support of education. These kids are our future and your dedication to them is amazing!

    There is a lot going on in the world at this time and the way we teach continues to change. When asking for these puppets I was picturing a classroom with a lot of interaction and creative storytelling in groups. Now that we will be having school with students at a distance from each other, I believe this is more important than before. I have changed the way that that these will be used, for the better.

    I am even more in need of independent centers and this will allow for some of that.

    Thank you for your support to my classroom!”

  • STEM and Engineering Tools Open Minds to Discovery

    Funded Oct 10, 2018

    My students were so excited when they opened these boxes of books and materials. They couldn't wait to get started using them. This project was written so that young students would have the materials they needed to learn and discover through quality materials and these items were exactly what we needed!

    The addition of these STEM centers into our daily routine has helped with vocabulary skills, collaborative thinking, reasoning and planning. They are beginning to ask higher level questions and to know it is safe to try things that may not work the first time. It is amazing to watch them light up as they discover something new and explain it to the rest of the class.

    I have had parents and other teachers ask about what is happening in my room with STEM and desire to extend it into their daily activities. Your generosity with your donations does not go unnoticed!

    Thank you for all that you do to help our young learners have the opportunities to learn and grow!”
