Schoolmela has been a great partner for our school for the past two years! We appreciate their dedication to serving the local community by initially seeking out the schools with the greatest needs. They've provided resources and supplies that help our students get their educational needs met, which is so important as both family and school budgets are stretched tighter than ever. Thank you, Schoolmela!
Schoolmela is an amazing organization and our families so enjoy the support they provide. The Families in Transition program is part of the Round Rock ISD and we support students whose housing is in transition. Many of our students live in hotels, doubled up with other families, and some even in their cars. Our Resource Center is almost fully community funded and provides vital resources to these children. We are so thankful for our partnership with Schoolmela - they donate supplies these students need in order to succeed in school!
Working as Volunteer for a Schoolmela can be a transformative experience. While there may be challenges, the personal growth, community connection, and sense of accomplishment often outweigh them. It’s an opportunity to make a difference while gaining valuable insights and skills.
Schoolmela has been an extremely valuable resource and wonderful partner for our school! Schoolmela has given us supplies for students’ success, items to lessen teachers’ stress, and partnership for the betterment of all. With their help, we are also able to begin planning our sensory garden as well a mentorship program geared towards S.T.E.M. development. None of this would be possible without their support and encouragement. We are eternally grateful for what Schoolmela brings to the betterment of our community!
Schoolmela has been an amazing organization to work with! This is the 2nd year Schoolmela has donated school supplies to Old Town Elementary Dual Language School. These donations help our students have the resources these need to be successful no matter their economic status. We are very fortunate to have Schoolmela support our campus!
Schoolmela is such a great organization to be a part of. It was fun being able to package school supplies for the School Supplies Drive and I liked selling juices in the summer to raise money! So many kids can now go to school and get accepted into great colleges! I'm glad I have the opportunity to do this!
I have worked with Schoolmela for over a decade and every moment has been so rewarding! We help rural kids in India with their education by covering their tuition, giving them school supplies, mentoring them, etc. Their website makes it possible to know each child you are helping individually! Schoolmela has also expanded to the US! We have started doing small projects in the US such as a Donation Drive and a School Supplies Drive! I am proud to say that I volunteer under Schoolmela!
P.S. This photo was taken when I was 9 years old! I was saving up money to donate to Schoolmela and asking others to do the same. The other photo is of the School Supplies Drive we did in the US. :)
I got an opportunity to be part of sponsoring a rural student for college education. This was possible with help from local businesses like costco who saw our continuous work for past few years.
This just didnt give a chance for me to be part of great vision, but also provided an opportunity to mentor the rural student mentioned that gave me an idea how blessed I am myself and also, motivation to continue this; yes, of-course gave sense of pride to encourage other to participate!
