This enabled my students to provide a community service and donation to the Ronald McDonald House in Detroit. We made cards of encouragement, and packed bags with water, protein bars, and a variety of other snacks, and well as some bags with activities and games for the families to use while spending their time at the hospital with their children. In addition, we had a visit from some workers to our school to speak to the students about Ronald McDonald House, and how this gift will be used. My students will continue to use the other materials that weren't exhausted to spread cheer to local nursing homes and police and fire departments.","fullyFundedDate":1761070573951,"projectUrl":"project/spreading-kindness-in-our-community/9798041/","projectTitle":"Spreading Kindness in our Community","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rivera","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6215061_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752712209394","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrscrivera"},{"teacherId":9689792,"projectId":9765602,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom.

Your kindness ensures that every child in our room has something they can confidently enjoy, which makes our classroom feel more inclusive, calm, and supportive.\r\nYou have made a real difference in our day‑to‑day routines. From smoother transitions to happier snack breaks to students feeling understood and cared for — your generosity is felt in every corner of our classroom.\r\nThank you for believing in my students and for helping create a space where all learners can thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1763494146230,"projectUrl":"project/feed-me/9765602/","projectTitle":"Feed Me","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Davis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9689792_orig.jpg?crop=260,260,x0,y15&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1740880283390","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9689792"},{"teacherId":6215061,"projectId":9471689,"letterContent":"My daily news team has been hard at work creating the daily news reports for our school.
