  • Books, Books for Everyone!

    Funded Dec 10, 2020

    I feel so blessed to be getting to know these 24 second graders. I am learning from them as they are learning from me. They left the building in March thinking they would be back.

    Many have very few pleasure reading books! Thank you so much for helping me bring my love for reading to them in their Homes!

    Your generosity is making this happen! Thank you again!”

    Funded Dec 8, 2020

    You Guys ROCK!! I can't thank you enough for your generosity! I am extremely grateful, and my students are going to be very excited about this addition to our online classroom resources! BrainPOP is such a fun way for the ENL population to learn. Thank you again for helping to make this possible for my most deserving students!”

  • Protect Our 21st Century Learners- We Need i-pad Cases

    Funded Dec 10, 2014

    First let me begin with Thank You! Thank You! The students are loving using the i-pads in the classroom!! The first thing the students said about the i-pad covers were "WOW! What a cool color!" They are so durable! Naturally we already dropped a few, but no fears, they were well protected!

    The students have been using the i-pads every day for small group and large group instruction in all subject areas! They are even teaching their teachers a few thing or two! It's such a joy to see!

    We are already seeing increased interest in many subject areas! So many of the English Language Learners are showing such great improvement in vocabulary and fluency!

    Thank you again for your generosity! You will not be soon forgotten!”

  • Authors Seeking Publication!

    Funded Apr 5, 2012

    I want to take the opportunity to thank you for generously supporting my classroom! The students are really excited when they can see their writing and other projects come alive on the computer. They are even more excited when they can print out their work.

    Thank you for helping to fund the much-needed toner that was running so very low! We can continue to supply these children with the content rich education they deserve. In today's world, technology is paramount in a child's education. However, we are left out in the dark ages if we don't have all the necessary accessories to make it work. As you know funding for education is being dramatically cut all over the county. Without the generous contributions from people like you, resources like the toner needed in our computer lab could never be purchased for classrooms like mine. Thank you again for your generous support!”

  • 21st Century Artists!

    Funded Jan 14, 2011

    How can we express our gratitude for the fabulous Bamboo tablets and pens! We love them! Creating pictures and designing graphics using this tool is so Awesome! We've been using them in our classroom several times a week.

    Our 5th grade students are most excited to teach the 3rd grade children to use the tablets! It's so much fun to see the students become the teachers! This is a very exciting time in our computer lab!

    In these times when NYC is in such a crisis when it comes to funding education, we count on your generosity in helping fund our technology projects! Once again you did NOT let us down!

    Thanks again for all your generous support!”

  • Color Our World!

    Funded Dec 15, 2010

    I want to take the opportunity to thank you for generously supporting my classroom!

    As soon as the color toner arrived we installed it in our Dell printer and got to work! The students are really excited when they can see their writing and other projects come alive in color on the computer screen! They are even more excited when they can print out their work in an array of beautiful color!

    Thank you for helping to fund the much-needed color toner order that was completely out! We can now continue to supply our students with the content rich education they deserve. In today's world, technology is paramount in our student's education. However, we are left out in the dark ages if we don't have all the necessary supplies to make it work.

    Thank you again for your generous support!”

  • Can You Hear What I Hear?

    Funded Nov 26, 2010

    I can't thank you enough for your generous donation to our computer lab! The headphones that you helped us purchase will help so many children every day!

    We have already begun to use them in class. Some of the children who are new to the U.S.A. have been using them to work on their newly acquired language skills. Many of the other children have been using them to sharpen their listening skills. These headphones will service the entire school; hopefully for at least a few years!

    Our school, like many others faces many budget reductions. Without your help, we wouldn't have been able to make such a large purchase. You can only image how noisy our computer lab would be if we didn't have our headphones!

    Thank you again for your generous donations and your support of New York City public education!”

  • "Flipping" for Video

    Funded Mar 26, 2010

    I want to take the opportunity to thank you for generously supporting my classroom! Our children are growing up in the digital age and your donation is helping me to offer my students 21st Century skills in our classroom! We have begun to use our Flip video cameras in many ways. Just to highlight one opportunity, my 4th graders recently had artwork exhibited in a private gallery. The children used the Flips to interview one and other about their artwork. They also interview the gallery owner and we posted a short clip to our class web page.

    As you know funding for education is being dramatically cut all over the county. Without the generous contributions from people like you, resources like the Flip video cameras could never be purchased for classrooms like mine. We are continuing to use the cameras to document many end of year activities and are looking forward to learning about more advanced techniques in video editing!

    Thank you again for your generous support!”
