Mrs. Hiers from Williston SC is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

A Space to Learn and Grow

My students need a few basic things to help make our classroom a brighter place to learn. My students need a rug to sit on during rug time and a storage unit to keep their things.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. I ask them, "Who is the best kindergarten class in the whole world?" and they reply, "We are!" I want them to know I believe in them and they can do anything.

I teach at a Title I school in South Carolina where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Many of my students receive backpack food on the weekend, but they are ready and willing to learn when it's time. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My Project

My students deserve the best that I can give them. With your help, I'll be able to provide them with a bright new classroom rug for learning to take place and a storage unit to keep materials in throughout the day. Anything that I can do to help make their day brighter and smooth transitions and procedures is something I want to do my best to give them. These two items are things I will not be able to provide them without your help. I know that our community is a small one, but it's a great one. Thanks in advance for your help!
