Your donations of hygiene and cleaning supplies—like hand sanitizer, tissues, deodorant, wipes, and more—have had a powerful impact on both my students' confidence and our classroom environment.\r\n\r\nMy students were so appreciative when the items arrived. We set up a \"Hygiene Station\" that allows them to access what they need privately and respectfully. For many, having access to these basic essentials helps them focus on learning instead of worrying about personal discomfort or embarrassment.\r\n\r\nThese donations have also helped me maintain a clean and healthy space, especially during busy days when students are collaborating closely on projects.

It's amazing how something as simple as a snack or drink can make such a big difference in students' energy and engagement.\r\n\r\nThanks to your kindness, I was able to create a more supportive, welcoming, and encouraging learning space.

The wireless earbuds have given students the ability to focus during independent learning activities, particularly when working with digital lessons, language programs, or multimedia projects. The document camera has made it easier for me to model problem-solving, share student work, and provide clear visual instruction for all learners. With the addition of the color printer/copier, students are now able to produce vibrant, high-quality work that showcases their creativity and enhances classroom displays. The Apple Pen has expanded my ability to interact with digital tools, making lessons more dynamic and engaging for students.\r\n\r\nIncorporating technology into the 21st-century classroom is essential in preparing students for the world they are entering. Today's learners must be able to navigate digital platforms, collaborate in virtual spaces, and use technology as a tool for creativity, communication, and critical thinking. These resources have not only enhanced daily instruction but also helped foster the skills students need to succeed beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1755638270104,"projectUrl":"project/tech-time-with-mrs-barlow/9597438/","projectTitle":"Tech Time with Mrs. Barlow","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Barlow","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9779847"},{"teacherId":4842291,"projectId":9122781,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our \"Training My Young Ladies\" project.

When the materials arrived, their eyes lit up with surprise and relief. We created a safe, judgment-free space to talk openly about what's happening in their bodies, how to manage it, and how to feel confident taking care of themselves. Some of my young ladies shared that they've never had access to these kinds of products before or didn't feel comfortable asking for them until now.\r\n\r\nOne student told me, \"I finally feel prepared instead of embarrassed.\" That alone made this project worthwhile—and it's because of you.\r\n\r\nWe are now incorporating these supplies into real-life lessons on hygiene, self-respect, and body awareness.
