This project has already had a meaningful impact on our students, and we are truly grateful for your generosity.\r\n\r\nThe Freshen Up Cart is placed in student bathrooms each morning and provides essential hygiene items such as deodorant, toothbrushes, combs, face wipes, and more. These items allow students to quietly freshen up before the school day begins, helping them feel more confident and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nWhen students first learned about the cart, many expressed excitement and relief. It quickly became clear that this project was meeting a real need. Students appreciate having access to these items in a way that preserves privacy and dignity, and they treat the cart with care and respect.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, students will continue managing and maintaining the Freshen Up Cart as part of their EAST work by tracking supplies and planning restocks. Thanks to your support, our students are starting their day feeling more prepared and are learning how small acts of care can make a big difference.","fullyFundedDate":1746787078345,"projectUrl":"project/freshen-up-steam-intermediate/9235809/","projectTitle":"Freshen Up STEAM Intermediate","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Feild","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp416292_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y192&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1744386895298","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/416292"},{"teacherId":8030135,"projectId":9574270,"letterContent":"So many of my reluctant readers have picked up new books due to your generous donation!
