Save Science Education: ScienceWoman's Challenge

Edit title

Thank you so much for your wonderful donation to our class project. I am truly inspired by your kindness and generosity. This exciting experience will impact two grade levels in my school, 1st and 5th; that is a lot of students. They will all be so excited. I can't wait to tell them of the treat in store for them. It is so important that these children look at science as a thrilling experience; that excitement will last them a life time. We sneak the education part in on them. Thank you again. You have made this a special year for me and my students”

WOW! I was so excited this morning when I found out that my project was selected! I cannot thank you enough for providing materials for my students. They will be so excited when I tell them that they will have their very own science center. Again, I can not thank you enough for your generosity and believing in teachers. The items you have purchased will make a difference for my students this year and many years to come”

I cannot be so thankful for your donation. It has been such a struggle to get this Science Olympiad team started and my children are the most opportunity driven group of youngsters I have ever worked with. The smiles and enthusiasm on their faces will be priceless when I am able to give them materials to work with. We are going to regional competition in March and I cannot wait to update you with our progress in this program! Thank you again for supporting Albemarle Road Middle School”

I can't tell you how much your support for this project means to me and my class. Several teachers in the building were also excited about the program and were hoping that the funding would come through. Your generosity will touch the lives of hundreds of students, as this can be used year after year. It may also be duplicated by others in our school, reaching even more children. Thank you in advance for a unit that will engage children in their world and well beyond the parameters of a classroom!

I would like to take this time to personally thank the generous donors who have made serious science presentations a possibility. The past few years at Barratt Middle School have been tumultuous, as I'm sure they have been all over Philadelphia. Barratt was hit particularly hard owing to the fact that it is in one of the more poverty stricken areas of South Philadelphia. Your donation will help give greater insight into topics as wide ranging as medicine, global warming, evolution, and the abnormal behavior of photons. Thank you from all of the teachers at Barratt Middle School. Thank you from all of the students who will now benefit from this great pedagogical tool. Thank you from the parents who want the same education for their children that students are receiving in the suburbs. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Your donation is greatly appreciated”

Thank you so much for providing my class with a subscription to Current Science. I am so excited for my students to read and learn about the latest discoveries and advances in science and technology. This will make science real for my kids, and hopefully it will spark an interest!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!!!

I am thrilled to hear that you have sponsored our Weather Forecasting Project. I know my students will thoroughly enjoy using the weather instruments, clouds poster, and water cycle model to explore how weather is created, changes, and is measured. The students will be very excited to get to actually use these items, rather than merely look at a picture or read about them. Thank you so very much. Maybe together we will inspire some future meteorologists”

What a difference you have just made. You have opened up a world to my students that they would not have gotten to experience other wise. The students jumped out of their seats with excitement when I told them our science center had been funded. They already have science experiments they want to explore racing through their heads. I can already see future Marie Curies and Albert Einsteins being developed.

As a teacher I want to personally thank you for supporting the education of the future of America. There are so many great causes and charities out there that education all too often gets overlooked. I usually have to fund most things on my own and well a teacher's pay does not cover it. You have personally renewed my faith in people caring about education.

Thank you again,

We just received word that our proposal has been funded thanks to you! I can tell you that my students are extremely excited and eager to work with the materials you provided for them. We will be using them as soon as they arrive and will let you know about all the adventures we have, and how fun it is to learn while we take care of our tiny neighbors in the pond!

Thanks again.

What a wonderful email to receive. Thank you so very much for your donations to purchase microscopes and slides. Our students deserve to

have all the advantages that other schools have and now we will! The microscopes will be used for health and science lessons and projects. To hear the oohs and aaahs of children seeing the microscopic world for the first time is spine tingling. Who knows...maybe we will launch the next scientist who discovers the cure for cancer.

Thank you again for your generosity. Our student's thank yous and pictures of some projects will follow.
