Aaron Hanks
“As a Physical Education teacher and coach, I take tremendous pleasure in helping my students learn the joys of being active, team work, persistence, and dedication. It is such a thrill to see how much they can develop over the course of a year.
Our kids are fantastic, but they can't perform without equipment. We need balls, nets, uniforms, and all sorts of equipment, as you will see on my wish list below. Help us with our soccer, volleyball, lacrosse, baseball and football programs.
All our students join me in thanking you!”

Here is what we need
Your contribution will help Aaron Hanks get essential resources for students, including those below:
So many sports at our school require balls and nets. They are not expensive, but we are lost without them. Imagine how many hours of sports you will provide with the funding for each ball.
Our young students need to be active to develop their bodies, as well as their minds. Help our students discover the joy of living healthy lives.
Baseball is the great American pastime. All it takes is some balls, bats, and a bit of equipment to help our students enjoy this sport.
Basketball equipment should be a SLAM DUNK, but we do not have what we need. Where would Michael Jordan be without the equipment he needed to develop his skills? Where will our students be?
I have seen so many young women develop their athletic abiliities and their leadership skills through field hockey. Please help today's girls get the same.
Football teaches more than just athletic skills. It also teaches dedication, teamwork and perseverance. Your contribution will provide the equipment we need to put students on the field.
Gymnastics is one of the great Olympic sports and one that everyone loves to watch. It is also a fantastic way for young people to build strength, flexibility, balance and character. Your support will make all the difference.
Our students love lacrosse, but they can't play this great sport without helmets, sticks, and pads. Help us out, and come to our next game!
My school is so good at track, they ran out of money
Soccer is the global sport, and it is more popular in the U.S. every year. It doesn't take much equipment, but we need more than we have.
Some people say that swimming is the best exercise. It takes strength and endurance, but it doesn't wear out your joints. All I know is that our students love to swim, and we need a bit of equipment to ensure their success.
Our school is lucky to have a tennis program, but this isn't handball -- we do need some equipment!
Boys and girls at our school love volleyball. It is one of the most cost-effective sports, so just a few dollars can make a big difference!
Wrestling builds character and strength. The wrestlers at our school have the will to win, but they need head gear, matts, knee pads, and other equipment.
We encourage our students to exercise and train to build their strength, endurance, and flexibility. Of course, we need more equipment to let them do that.
Our student athletes need uniforms for their big games. Your contribution can help them look good and instill pride in their achievment.
Our cheerleaders learn teamwork, build endurance, develop confidence, and generate school spirit. (Do you know that one school cheerleader went on to become President?). Your support will help them and all our teams.
Earn Referral Rewards for My Students. Simply Invite More Educators to ClassWish.org
Here is an Easy Way to Help My Students Receive More Resources
Aaron Hanks's wish list can earn referral rewards for more resources when you use this custom link to invite educators to create wish lists on
ClassWish.org:
http://ClassWish.org/?inv=15702
Win-Win!
This is a win-win opportunity to help educators you invite, their students, Aaron Hanks,
and students of Aaron Hanks, all at the same time.
Four Million Opportunities to Earn Referral Rewards
Invite educators (teachers, student-teachers, administrators, librarians, coaches, school
nurses, guidance counselors, etc.), as well as PTA, PTO, and booster club leaders.
Invite these people from your school, from other schools in your community, or from
any public, private, or parochial K-12 school in the United States.
Sending Invitations is Quick and Easy
There is sample text you can use for:
- emails to educators and for PTA/PTO/booster club leaders
- Facebook posts
- Tweets
Be sure to insert Aaron Hanks's custom invitation URL, which appears above, in the invitations!
You can also display a banner on your website or blog and have it point at the invitation URL. See the instructions here.
How It Works
ClassWish makes it easy:
- If educators use Aaron Hanks's custom invitation link when they join ClassWish, their account will be associated with Aaron Hanks's account.
- When they get donations during the first year after joining, Aaron Hanks's wish list will earn referral rewards equal to 3% of those donations. (No, it does not come out of the invited teacher's donations; ClassWish’s vendor suppliers fund the referral rewards).
- The rewards will be credited to Aaron Hanks's wish list as the invited educators have ClassWish use their funds to buy supplies and equipment for them.
- So if a teacher gets $1,000 in donations in the first year, the wish list for Aaron Hanks earns $30. That’s pretty good for sending an email!
Be Sure to Follow Up
People typically need to see a message several times before they act on it, so be sure to check regularly if the educators you invite have created a wish list. If not, just send them a follow-up invitation (again, with our team’s custom link). Be sure to re-post invitations regularly via Facebook, Twitter, etc., too.
Inviting FIRST Robotics Teams
Please invite FIRST Robotics teams to ClassWish, too. We prepared sample text for
emails, Facebook, and twitter, which you can find here.
Invitations to FIRST teams helps students, but they do not generate referral rewards. That is because ClassWish most often distributes cash to FIRST teams and does not have the chance to earn a payment from a vendor partner, as it does with donations for other educators.
Reporting
Aaron Hanks can see accepted invitations and credited referral rewards on the wish list Account page.
ClassWish Eligibility Requirements
