🌍 Visible impact Every school has a public page showing the support they've received
Public schools are underfunded and overwhelmed. Teachers are often forced to pay for supplies out of their own pocket. Libraries are being defunded, closed, or forgotten. SmartSlaps™ is a fun, easy way to get communities involved empowering students, educators, and families to work together toward one simple goal: Make learning exciting again and give every school and library the support they deserve.
This initiative was proudly launched and funded by Matthew Winterhawk, a Nevada candidate for state office, and his wife Yiyu Wu, alongside their two children, Ricky and Ava the heart and soul behind SmartSlaps™ Foundation. Together, as a family, they made a powerful commitment: “We believe every child deserves to feel seen, supported, and empowered regardless of zip code. That’s why we are personally funding the launch of the first 10 schools in Nevada not because we have to, but because it’s that important. Even if it’s out of our own pockets, we will keep going. This is our pledge to the children, the teachers, and the future of education.” By starting in their home state of Nevada, they hope to lead by example inspiring a ripple effect across all 50 states.
SmartSlaps™ is 100% community-powered. Unlike traditional organizations, we don't rely on government funding or big corporate donors. Every dollar you give helps us design new stickers, ship starter packs to schools, run national art contests, and keep everything free for kids. Your donation keeps the mission alive empowering students, supporting schools and libraries, and spreading joy one sticker at a time.
