Your support has made a tremendous difference, not only in the resources we have available but also in the confidence and excitement my students feel when engaging in their learning.\r\n\r\nWith the supplies you provided, my students are now better equipped to participate in hands-on activities, complete projects, and stay organized throughout the year. These materials allow us to create meaningful learning experiences—whether it's building group presentations, participating in mock courtroom trials, or conducting safety and emergency response simulations. Every pencil, notebook, marker, and folder you helped provide is being used to prepare future leaders in public service.\r\n\r\nBeyond the physical supplies, your generosity sends a powerful message to my students: that their education matters and that there are people who believe in their potential. \r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students and myself, thank you again for your kindness and support. Your contribution is helping us build a strong foundation for success, and we are deeply grateful for the positive impact you've made in our classroom and in our community.","fullyFundedDate":1746787082918,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-tomorrows-trailblazers/9295633/","projectTitle":"Tools for Tomorrow's Trailblazers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Robie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7350841"},{"teacherId":5632236,"projectId":9200273,"letterContent":"The items that you helped fund will allow me to continue mold future educators. In a rural school simple supplies as paper and ink are hard to receive. The ink will allow my students to create meaningful activities for the students they tutor. With so much illness on the rise, the cleaning supplies will help keep the room sanitized and germ free. The popcorn will be a bi-weekly treat. The smell of buttery machine popped popcorn fills the room and the students are excited and ready to have a \"Popping Good Time\" during the learning session. It is such an awesome hit, not only in my classroom, but in the CTE center. We like to share our Blessings. \r\nIt is because of donors like you, me and so many other educators can work more about being the positive impact our students need and less worries on how we are going to get classroom necessities. I can go on and on about how my classroom has been blessed from the support of Donorschoose. I am forever greatful.","fullyFundedDate":1746786995601,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-for-future-educators/9200273/","projectTitle":"Supplies for Future Educators!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Leflore-Johnson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5632236_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721942687329","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5632236"},{"teacherId":5632236,"projectId":8963227,"letterContent":"Words, can't explain how excited my students were when the popcorn arrived.
