Toward this campaign's goal
3Sales History
Cash register
A phone-sized till for your sale table. Tap as you sell and it logs straight into your total — no writing things down and typing them up later.
Pulseras out with students
Hand a batch to a student to sell to friends and family, then record what comes back. Reminders open in your own email, so they come from you — nothing is sent to students by us.
Letter to Parents
A short note families can act on in ten seconds. Edit anything below, then send it however your school normally reaches parents. Keep it brief — parents get a lot of email from school, and the ones that get read are the short ones.

Want an escape room kit in your box?
A full lock set with blacklight markers and a flashlight, for the 40-minute Protege Las Pulseras escape room. Free, and it ships inside your pulsera box — we just need it back when your sale ends. See the printable materials →
Every free classroom resource that comes with your pulsera sale. Start with the essentials, or search for what you need — everything opens in a new tab.
Color The World
The project's flagship introduction video — philosophy, mission, values and goals, told through the artisans themselves. The natural first day of a pulsera unit. Comes with guiding slides, a jigsaw group project, and extension activities on economic opportunity and cultural comparison.
Perfect Pulsera Week — Novice
A structured week of daily lessons built for Novice classes, taking students from 'what is a pulsera' to the four educational values. Day-by-day, with everything linked inline. The single easiest way to run a pulsera sale week.
Perfect Pulsera Week — Intermediate
The same week-long structure pitched at Intermediate classes — more artisan biography, more discussion, more writing. Daily activities explore the project's mission and the people behind it.
Perfect Pulsera Week — Advanced
The Advanced week — artisan cooperatives, the economics of fair trade, and the project's impact examined rather than described. Suited to AP-track classes running a sale.
Professional Development Unit
An EdPuzzle course that walks a teacher through how to fold Pulsera Project materials into an existing curriculum. Start here if you have never run a sale. Counts toward PD hours at many districts.
Class Talks with the Pulsera Project
Book a live video call for your class with Social Impact Coordinator Jorge Morales, or with co-founders Chris Howell and Colin Crane. Students ask their own questions, in Spanish or English. The one genuinely interpersonal item in the library.
"Protege Las Pulseras" Escape Rooms
A 40-minute escape room in which students race to get a shipment of pulseras released from customs, learning Central American geography and the project's mechanics along the way. Runs in person with a kit, or fully digital. Adaptable to Spanish or English.
The Value of a Pulsera
Where does the $5 actually go? Students break down the economic and human value of a single pulsera. The activity that makes fair trade concrete rather than slogan-shaped.
Bellringers & Brain Breaks
Five-minute openers — one slide at the start of class for journalling or pair discussion. Includes Spanish and English bellringers, an advanced set, brain breaks, and a Day in the Life of a Nicaraguan Student warm-up.
