Everyone can make a difference, even you!
​
Any small amount of donation within time accumulates. It may not seem like much to you now but in the eyes of those who lack resources that is their doorway to a better life. If you do have books that you would like to donate, https://firstbook.org/, provides children from low-income families reading materials. Unfortunately, not all students have access or even have the money to purchase reading material. They miss out on the adventure that comes along with reading.
Similarly, they do not even have the basic necessities like paper and pencils. Do you have extra school supplies that you feel like donating to local schools nearby so that another student can learn in the classroom? If you answered yes, I highly suggest you check out the schools nearby in your area. Schools are always in need of pencils since they somehow disappear before dismissal. Teachers are constantly having to repurchase and provide them for their students. So any pencils, papers, markers, highlighters teachers would never turn down these precious items.
Along with the advancement of technology, not all schools receive the same amount of funding ergo they do not have access to the latest equipment like other schools. However, at https://www.cristina.org/ this nonprofit organization provides donated computers to students at risk, people with disabilities and the economically disadvantaged throughout the United States. This foundation matches it with a person in need, picks it up and delivers it to the recipient.
Everyone is capable of donating something. Just imagine how a child’s face will light up when they are handed basic learning tools and resources that will used to enhance their learning experience. Would you not want to play a part in helping a student thrive? Keep in mind that no donation is small, everything counts!
