  • Kindergarten Digs Gardening

    Funded Oct 15, 2008

    What a great feeling to know that there are wonderful people like you in our world. I am so very thankful that others take time to share their resources with those less fortunate. My students will enjoy learning about gardening with the new tools. I am just as excited as they are, maybe more. Thank you so much for your donation.

  • Kid- Size Video Cameras for 2nd Graders

    Funded Oct 11, 2008

    Thank you so much for funding my proposal. I can't wait to share the good news with my students. We have already begun our first movie project of the school year, but it does not include any video. It only has still pictures and scans of pictures. With these cameras we will be able to add video to the projects, as well as document all our activities of this school year, such as the upcoming Halloween parade in three weeks.

    Know that you have made a difference in the lives of my second graders.

    Thanks again”

  • A Documentary That Will Inspire

    Funded Oct 9, 2008

    Wow! Receiving a digital camera to create a documentary with my class is a dream come true. My students love learning through technology. They will feel privileged to have an opportunity to take digital pictures and record interviews to document our city's history. Up to this point, I have been supplementing a 20 year old textbook when teaching my students the history of their city. I cannot begin to imagine how excited they will be when they find out they will be creating a documentary as a way to study history.

    Your gift will bring history to life! Thank you, Ann”

  • Educate Elementary Students - Movie Protect the Environment

    Funded Dec 19, 2008

    Thank you so very much for this generous donation to our school. My students were very excited to hear the terrific news.

    Our students have been working tirelessly on their interdisciplinary project with the non-profit organization, Surfrider. They will be using this camcorder to create an educational documentary on the environment for local elementary students. This year they have learned a great deal about graphic design. Having access to video equipment will enhance their overall appreciation and understanding of this growing industry. It is very satisfying for us to see our students' hard work and knowledge transfer to elementary students.

    Again, thank you for helping our students complete this project. We truly appreciate it.
