Today we’re celebrating a special person’s (Ms. Emma Schmidt’s) birthday as we near the end of our drive! 🎂🎉🎈

Throughout her time with The Kadie Project, Emma Schmidt has shown herself to be a dedicated educator, committed advocate, and connected community member. She has worked with Ky & Kate every step of the project to ensure her students this year will have all the resources they need to succeed. Jefferson Elementary is so lucky to have a teacher like her!

Today through Saturday, let’s clear her wish list! We’re only a few donations short of our goal. Donating to local classrooms is a WONDERFUL way to show teachers you appreciate them, students you’re invested in them, and (in this case) Emma that you hope she has an awesome birthday! 🥳

We love you all and know we’ll close out our most successful drive yet on Saturday. Thank you!! 🥰

Wednesday, we took a moment to thank all of our supporters, who’ve made this organization what it is today. Now, we wanted to feature someone dear to our heart — Ashlee Bell! They’ve been in our corner for the past few years, always shouting us out and lending a hand. We appreciate you, Ashlee!!

Did you know that nearly 21,000 children are in foster care in Illinois tonight?

We often think about preparing homes for foster children, but rarely preparing our classrooms. Emma Schmidt, however, has this in mind when planning her year! She noticed that many of her students last year had experiences with foster care and asked us to consider resources for supporting youth in temporary living situations.

On our wish list, you’ll notice lotion, menstrual products, and tools for emotional regulation (like calm strips)! Donate today to support Ms. Schmidt’s students in foster care ❤️

June may be over, but at The Kadie Project we celebrate Pride all year round! 🌈

While our organization began with a focus on resources that supported the development of racial, cultural, and religious equity and justice, we’ve since expanded! The Kadie Project is PROUD this year to partner with Ms. Emma Schmidt to provide resources that highlight LGBTQIA+ stories & histories. In light of recent book bans and animosity in schools towards LGBTQIA+ students and issues, we stand firm in our commitment to safe and loving schools for ALL.

Check out these titles (and more) on our wish lists to ensure that Ms. Schmidt’s students have access to identity-affirming literature for years to come. Donate below! 🏳️‍🌈
