To Inkfinity and Beyond: Fueling Knowledge With Fresh Printer Ink
Funded Nov 15, 2023I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donations to my DonorsChoose project. Your support has made a profound impact on my classroom and my students' learning experiences.
Before receiving your donations, our classroom printer was often out of ink, which severely limited our ability to print important materials for our lessons. This lack of resources made it challenging to provide my students with the engaging and interactive learning experiences they deserve.
Thanks to your kindness and generosity, we now have a steady supply of printer ink, which has transformed our classroom environment. We can now print colorful handouts, worksheets, and visual aids that bring our lessons to life and capture my students' attention. The ability to print these materials has also enhanced my students' creativity and engagement in their learning.
I am incredibly grateful for your belief in my students and your commitment to supporting their education. Your generosity has made a real difference in our lives, and we are all so thankful for your support.”

Bringing Ideas to Life: A Printer for Our Creative Classroom
Funded Nov 8, 2023I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for your incredible generosity in funding my DonorsChoose project for a new printer. Your kindness has truly made a profound impact on my classroom and the learning experience of my students.
Before your generous donation, our old printer had become unreliable and inefficient, hindering our ability to print out essential materials for classwork, projects, and creative endeavors. The lack of a functioning printer posed a significant challenge, limiting our ability to provide our students with the resources they need to succeed in their academic pursuits.
Thanks to your unwavering support, our classroom now boasts a state-of-the-art printer that has transformed the way we learn and create. The new printer's speed, efficiency, and high-quality output have opened up a world of possibilities, allowing us to print out colorful learning materials, engaging worksheets, and creative projects that bring our lessons to life.
Your generosity has not only enriched our classroom with a valuable tool but has also instilled in my students a sense of appreciation for the power of community support. Their excitement and enthusiasm upon receiving the new printer were truly heartwarming, and it served as a powerful reminder that their education is a shared responsibility that extends beyond the classroom walls.
On behalf of my students and myself, I extend our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering commitment to education. Your generosity has made a difference in our lives, and we are truly grateful for your support.”

Funded Jan 11, 2023We wanted to take a moment to express our sincere appreciation for your contribution to our project. Your generosity has allowed us to bring an incredible learning experience to our students, and we are excited to share the progress we have made thanks to your support.
The 360 camera you helped fund has been an incredible addition to our classroom. Through this technology, we have been able to transport our students to some of the most iconic and historically significant locations in New York City and beyond. Our students have been able to explore the halls of the Museum of Natural History, stand at the foot of the Empire State Building, and even gaze up at the majestic ceiling of Grand Central Station. This has been an invaluable learning experience for our students, as it has allowed them to engage with history and culture in a way that would not have been possible without this technology.
One of the most exciting aspects of this project has been the ability to foster teamwork and collaboration among our students. They have been working together to create and explore virtual environments, communicating and cooperating in order to achieve their goals. This has been a transformative experience for our students, and we believe it will continue to have a positive impact on their academic and personal growth.
Finally, we want to express our gratitude for your support of this project. Your contribution has enabled us to provide our students with an enriching learning experience that will have a lasting impact on their lives. Thank you for helping us to bring the world to our classroom and for supporting our efforts to inspire and educate the next generation of learners.”

Make Virtual Reality a Reality!
Funded Dec 13, 2022Once again, I find myself incredibly thankful for your support of our students! The virtual reality headset has been such a breath of fresh air for my students, helping to break up the monotony of school and introducing them to new experiences. My students have already walked a World War I trench, explored the attic where Anne Frank hid, and journeyed through the streets of divided Berlin at the height of the Cold War. The discussions around these experiences have been rich and students have consistently asked when the headset will be coming out again.
Thank you for providing this incredibly useful learning tool!”

While these hard drives may not seem like the most exciting classroom resource, they will go a long way towards archiving and sharing the incredible work our students create.
You have helped to open up new opportunities for peer feedback, revision work, and modeling that was previously unavailable to us.

Funded May 4, 2021Once again I find myself entirely speechless at your kindness and generosity. As I've said before, many of you will never meet my students, but you've taken an active role in ensuring that they receive every opportunity possible in their education. For that I am forever grateful.
This project has been a long time in the works and I'm so excited to get started when our students finally return back in person. The button machines will provide my students with an authentic, engaging, and creative outlet to express their political views and learn about the history of campaigns and protest movements in our country.”
