What Kids Have Always Needed
Today’s great fashion
designers would not have
succeeded had they not had
art supplies and other
resources in school.

Yet, Budget Cuts Leave Classrooms Barren
TIME Magazine Reports:
“Many California teachers are scrambling to find fresh
ways to thriftily educate their students and maintain
their physically crumbling classrooms.”
They now spend $1,500 a year of their own money to
keep their classrooms afloat.
"I always ask business owners if they have pens with
their logo on them so that I can distribute them to the
students," says Nosanov Goldman, who has been
teaching for 22 years. "I've never had to beg like this."

Fashion Celebrity Campaigns
Famous fashion designers, artists,
musicians, actors, athletes, authors,
and scientists will appear on web
pages at ClassWish.org and on
banner ads, which generate buzz and
help attract donated ad inventory.
Fashion Ads and Editorial Campaigns
We will secure donated ad
inventory and editorial
coverage from fashion,
entertainment, and lifestyle
magazines, websites, and
blogs.
Fashion Cause Marketing Campaigns
For You
For Your Favorite Teacher
We plan to launch campaigns like this with a number of designers and retailers.
Consumers earn chances to win a wardrobe for themselves and for their favorite
teacher when they take measurable actions (visit a website, visit a store, tweet a
message, etc.) that benefit the designer or store or ClassWish.
Tight-knit school communities promote the viral spread of the message among
moms and teachers. We might replicate this with any number of fashion brands.
Engaging with Fashion Retailers
Our ClassWish decal campaign provides
any fashion retailer with goodwill and
customer loyalty when they donate and
display this decal in their store window.

What Our Interns Say About ClassWish
ClassWish is the perfect internship for anyone who is looking to make a
difference and enjoy it. It provides flexibility for busy college schedules, allows
you to meet people from different schools and countries, and sometimes you
even get ice cream!
Taylor Digby, New York University
Interning at ClassWish the summer before my junior year at Columbia was a great
decision. I applied for a graphic design position, and to my delight, I was working
side by side with the Co-Founder. There are very few other opportunities in
Manhattan that give you first hand experience as an intern.
Natalie Jung, Columbia University
The independence I’ve had here has allowed me to contribute to ClassWish as a
developing nonprofit at the same time as I’ve gained valuable working
experience and perspective as an individual.
Mike Kardas, Brown University

What More of Our Interns Say About ClassWish
It was a wonderful experience. I was able to learn great skills such as contacting
prestigious PR firms around the country, recruiting donors, and updating all social
media sites. There are many people working on all other sorts of exciting projects,
all of them with the goal of helping children get a better education. If you want to
make a difference, this is the place to intern.
Michelle Ioannou, Fordham University
ClassWish was most helpful in improving my interpersonal skills in a professional
setting. This will certainly come in handy when i continue my work with my
school’s admissions department come this autumn, and will certainly come in
hand post-graduation.
Greg Eichhorn, University of Nottingham
I loved getting the chance to interview applicants and determine what projects
they might be best suited for. The flexibility, personal attention, and rewarding
work make this internship an ideal choice for anyone looking to make a difference!
Renee Hooker, Rutgers University
