AMBA Gives Back

Teachers are our heroes! Since 1981, AMBA has been providing resources and benefits for active and retired educators. So we understand the great struggle teachers face when it comes to getting the classroom supplies they need. AMBA has partnered with DonorsChoose.org to encourage our benefit advisors to actively support local classrooms and students.

This project will give 4 iPads to Ms. Bleiler's class. This technology will allow students to complete tasks individually and track their own pace.

Ms. Bleiler says: "My students will be able to gain knowledge and comprehension of the English language through interactive programs. They will be able to create projects and publish their work. Seeing these children beam with pride after they have learned and accomplished new tasks is the greatest gift."

A spark of Shakespeare
Teacher: Ms. Davis

More than a third of Ms. Davis' kids come from low-income households and are all highly motivated to make an impact on their school and community.

More importantly, they are voracious readers!

This fully funded project will give her class a set of No Fear Shakespeare: Midsummer Night's Dream.

Now they'll be better prepared for English I in high school next year!

Seated at the throne: flexible seating for future royalty
Teacher: Ms. Davis

Many of Md. Davis' kids struggle to pay attention in class due to OCD, ADD, and anxiety.

With flexible seating options in the classroom, students will be better able to focus on their reading and comprehension growth in class.

This fully funded project means Ms. Davis' class will
receive stand-up desks, a podium, and finger fidgets to help students concentrate!
