My Project

Dear DonorsChoose Community,

URGENT REQUEST: Computers Needed for Ms. Hersh's 4th Grade ELA Class hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to bring attention to a critical need in our classroom that is impacting the education and learning environment of our students.

My name is Ms. Hersh and welcome to our 4th-grade English Language Arts class at a Title 1 school. We are facing a significant challenge due to the lack of computers available for our students. In today’s digital age, we already have In today's digital age, access to technology is crucial for enhancing learning experiences and preparing students for success in the future.

Unfortunately, without adequate access to computers, our students are at a disadvantage when it comes to engaging with online resources, interactive learning platforms, and digital literacy skills. This shortage is hindering their ability to fully participate in lessons and activities, ultimately affecting their academic progress and growth.

We are reaching out to the generous donors of the DonorsChoose community in the hopes of securing funding for computers for our classroom. Having this essential resource would be truly life-changing for our students, providing them with the tools they need to excel and thrive academically.

Your support would not only benefit our current students but also future generations of learners who will pass through our classroom. Together, we can make a significant impact on their educational journey and help bridge the digital divide that exists in our community.

Thank you for considering our request and for your continued dedication to supporting teachers and students in need. Your generosity has the power to transform lives and create lasting positive change.
