Rewards for Kindergarten Success!
Funded Jun 23, 2021Thank you so much for your kindness and willingness to support our "Rewards for Kindergarten Success" project! The prizes and rewards are already making a huge difference in my classroom. The students love earning a trip to the prize box for good behavior and academic progress.

Classroom Basics for a Fresh, Healthy Start!
Funded Jul 29, 2020Thank you so much for funding our "Classroom Basics for a Fresh, Healthy Start!" project! I am very touched by your thoughtfulness and generosity. Our kindergarten classroom is sparkling clean thanks to the wonderful donation of cleaning supplies. The cleaning supplies are being used to disinfect student learning materials and centers that we use daily. The disinfecting wipes, disinfectant spray, Kleenex tissues, and wet wipes are helping to keep us as healthy and germ-free as possible. Bottled water is a must and comes in handy for my students after recess, fitness, and P.E. since the water fountains are currently turned off due to COVID-19. Thank you for helping make this year better than ever and helping my students become the best learners possible!”

Funded Apr 29, 2020Thank you very much for our HP ink cartridge refills! Because of your generous support, I am now able to print vibrant and engaging classroom resources and instructional materials for my students. I have already made new learning games and mats with our color ink cartridge refills for phonemic awareness, phonics, and math instruction. The bright, colorful visuals and learning activities help my students retain information while improving important reading skills and math concepts. I could have printed these same things in black and white but that is no fun for our little learners! I am truly thankful for your generosity and support!”

Classroom Basics for Kindergarten
Funded Jan 9, 2020Thank you so much for supporting and funding our "Classroom Basic for Kindergarten" project! My kindergarten students were so excited to open our boxes of classroom supplies. They gathered around them and were thrilled to see all of the great things that were donated to our classroom. After unpacking the boxes, my students were ready to dive in and begin using them right away.
We were able to replenish broken and worn crayons, pencils, and erasers with brand new ones to help us finish the school year strong. The card stock, Velcro squares, and Post-It notes are being used to make hands-on learning activities for reading and math. And of course, my students absolutely LOVE the Scratch n' Sniff positive stickers! Our classroom desks are sparkling clean thanks to the wonderful donation of Clorox disinfecting wipes.
THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for your generosity and for helping my kindergarten students become the best learners possible!”

They were absolutely amazed when I told them everything was from kind donors from Donors Choose. It was such a blast opening all of the boxes and showing them what they had received! I will no longer have to worry about my students being hungry in class and not having the energy to focus and do their very best. Thank you for helping make this year better than ever and helping my kindergarten students become the best learners possible!”
