Thanks to so many of you for donating to my mustache cause! Together we've raised almost $5,000 that has fully funded 12 classroom projects at the amazing Think College Now elementary school in Oakland. And we have three more to go-- so keep giving til it hurts!
Below is a thank you email written last week by one of the teachers we're helping. Our donation bought her classroom dozens of books on American Presidents.
Dear Wade and friends,
Thank you so much for funding this project! My students are already clamoring to check-out their new books. I'm so excited to share these resources with them and many more students in the years to come! Your generous support did much more than put books into our classroom; it taught my students about education as a shared value in our society. The knowledge that donors from around the country are supporting them in their journey to become successful readers had a profound impact on them. When they read about the leaders of our past, they are even more aware that through hard work and dedication, they can become the leaders of the future. Thank you so much again for making a difference in the lives of my students!
With gratitude, Ms. Noonan
