There was plenty of diabetic supplies for the rest of the school year. Also, it was able to supply the summer program and keep the kids on campus and safe.\r\nThe student really loved the beef jerky. It was the perfect protein snack for a low blood sugar treatment along with their juices. \r\nWhen the students learned they were donated, they all smiled so big. It was so special for them to feel noticed and included. The rice crispy treats also were a little pre-PE pick up for them and felt life a treat most days for the kids.

The bears have turned reading into a joyful, cozy experience and have helped create a positive routine that students look forward to every day.

Your kindness brought joy, motivation, and a sense of normalcy to our classroom during a challenging time, and we are truly grateful.\r\n\r\nAs a new teacher, your donations also made a big difference in helping me gather essential classroom supplies that were needed to create a warm and productive learning environment.
