Thanks to your support, our students now have a special space designed just for them—a sanctuary where they can relax, recharge, and feel safe when they need a break from their schoolwork.\r\n\r\nYour contribution allowed us to provide comfortable bean bag chairs, weighted blankets, social-emotional learning (SEL) tools, an arcade, and so much more to create a space where students can find comfort and peace. The Komfy Korner has already made a profound impact on our school community, giving students a place to unwind, practice mindfulness, and engage in self-care.\r\n\r\nThis space is truly more than just a room—it's a reflection of your belief in our students' well-being and their need for a supportive environment. Your donation has made a real difference in their lives, and we are incredibly grateful for your kindness and generosity.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your support.
