Your contribution has made a profound difference in our classrooms and in the lives of our students.\r\nThe sensory tools you provided have become powerful and effective resources for self-regulation. Our students especially loved the vibrating pillow, which helps them relax, and the kinetic sand, which offers comfort when they experience overwhelming sensory input. These tools have given them safe and joyful ways to manage their emotions and focus on learning.\r\nEqually impactful have been the communication devices. With your support, our students are now able to answer simple \"yes\" or \"no\" questions, expand their vocabulary, and begin forming short sentences of three to four words. This progress has not only strengthened their communication skills but has also significantly reduced unexpected behaviors that previously interrupted the learning process.\r\nThanks to your generosity, we have created a more inclusive and secure learning environment where every student feels integrated, supported, and empowered. Your donation has truly enhanced our ability to foster growth, confidence, and belonging among our learners.\r\nWe are deeply grateful for your commitment to education and inclusion. Your kindness continues to inspire us and reminds our students that they are surrounded by a community that believes in their potential.","fullyFundedDate":1755372787454,"projectUrl":"project/empowering-preschoolers-with-autism-thro/9481101/","projectTitle":"Empowering Preschoolers With Autism Through Sensory and Communication Tools","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fraire","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9759054_orig.jpg?crop=1049,1049,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755036003640","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9759054"},{"teacherId":10165389,"projectId":9567422,"letterContent":"Dear donors. \r\nI would like to take this opportunity to Thank You all for your generous heart.

Many times, the main printer in the office gets jammed or there is a wait list to print items, but now there is no wait! I am able to have documents ready for parents during the IEP meetings and they don't have to come back to the school to pick them up later. For my SPED students, I have to tailor their assignments to each of their accommodations listed on their IEP's. This may mean that sometimes I take a general education assignment and change the format. Now, I don't have to wait for these specialized assignments to be printed, I can have them ready for the students to do on the day of the lesson.\r\n\r\nMany parents have thanked me for having the documents ready so quickly since most of them have a hard time returning to the school to pick up the documents. When the documents are sent home with the students, they get lost or ripped, so having this printer has been an amazing addition to the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1746785458427,"projectUrl":"project/help-iep-meetings-run-smooth/9261513/","projectTitle":"Help IEP Meetings Run Smooth","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Nunez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8620792_orig.jpg?crop=1463,1463,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723818576421","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8620792"},{"teacherId":8476766,"projectId":8780593,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, my students have made remarkable strides in their learning and development.
