Your generosity has truly made a difference.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, many students who often come to school with empty stomachs are able to focus better and stay more engaged during lessons. Knowing there is something available for them when they need it has meant so much.\r\n\r\nThe snacks have also been a great positive incentive in our classroom. Students can use earned points to purchase a snack, which has encouraged responsibility and motivation. At the same time, snacks are always provided freely to students who need one—no questions asked.\r\n\r\nThe students absolutely love the variety of choices and take pride in having their own little \"personal pantry\" in the classroom. They feel supported, cared for, and appreciated—and that is something I see reflected in their attitudes every day.\r\n\r\nThank you again for helping create a classroom environment where students feel ready to learn and supported in more ways than one. I am incredibly grateful for your kindness.","fullyFundedDate":1758763281113,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-for-success/9552105/","projectTitle":"Snacks for Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Freeland","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10160990"},{"teacherId":9915364,"projectId":9099988,"letterContent":"On behalf of our students and staff, I want to extend our deepest gratitude for your generous contribution of athletic equipment to our classroom.
