Prior to your donation, I had been purchasing deodorant for kids when they have asked for it. With your donations, I am able to have this on hand, and give to those who need it. It has been a game changer. The other items in the bins I have provided myself. I ran out of hair claw clips pretty quickly and hair brushes. I have had students come to the clinic, see the bins and ask about them. I have also had students come to the clinic asking for a toothbrush, deodorant, a hair tie, etc and know nothing about the bins. Once I tell them about the bins, they have let me know what they could use. Seeing a relief wash across some of their faces has been the most satisfying experience with this project. It is not easy to fund for 500 students. Your donation has helped not just me, but these students. That is the entire point of this, the students. I am so grateful for your help. I look forward to helping these kiddos with something that seems so small to most, but can make such a difference to some.","fullyFundedDate":1766458161317,"projectUrl":"project/take-what-you-need-cart/9661792/","projectTitle":"Take What You Need Cart","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Clark","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9892445"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_68538","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":459,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":67,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":80,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"20.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":33.3,"schoolId":68538,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Piqua Junior High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Piqua Junior High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/ohio/piqua-city-school-district/piqua-junior-high-school/68538"}
