5 DonorsChoose Projects to Help This February

By Xochitl Loza January 31, 2025

At Macaroni KID Mountain House - Manteca - Tracy, we love celebrating and supporting our local teachers! Every month, we highlight five DonorsChoose projects from educators in our community who need a little extra help bringing resources to their students. Whether it's books, technology, classroom supplies, or hands-on learning materials, these teachers are making a difference—and you can, too!

Here are five local teachers with DonorsChoose projects that need support this month:
