Students were able to jump right in as soon as it was assembled, giving them immediate access to an activity many had only heard about or briefly tried before. This resource ensures that every student has a chance to actively participate without waiting on limited or outdated equipment. With the right tools now available, students are developing essential skills such as hand-eye coordination, agility, and strategic thinking in a fun and engaging way. The smiles, laughter, and determination I saw on the court today are proof of the impact this gift is making.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, the equipment is opening doors for opportunities beyond the classroom. Several students have already expressed interest in forming a badminton club, giving them a chance to explore the sport more deeply, build leadership skills, and connect with peers in a positive, structured environment. Badminton is more than just a game—it fosters teamwork, respect, and perseverance, and provides an outlet for students who may not always connect with more traditional sports. Thanks to your generosity, our students now have the chance to grow athletically, socially, and personally, and we are excited to see this resource inspire both immediate joy and long-term opportunities.","fullyFundedDate":1758224203030,"projectUrl":"project/bad-to-the-minton/9710090/","projectTitle":"Bad to the...

The book was read during class, and the students discussed the artist work and shared ideas for their own pieces. \r\n\r\nThe students used the books as a source of inspiration for their own pieces. Once they chose an artist work, they did further research to view and learn more about the artist. It was challenging for them to recreate some of the aspects of the artist they chose. They were able to collaborate and come up with ways to execute and translate what inspired them.\r\n\r\nI appreciate the donation to my class of this set of books.

These resources have also allowed us to integrate important lessons about body positivity, health education, and the importance of advocating for one's needs.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the materials, their reactions were a mix of surprise, gratitude, and relief. Many expressed how meaningful it was to have these products available at school, especially for those who may not always have consistent access at home.

When I first began my position as social worker for our Teen Pregnancy Program, baby clothes were stuffed wherever a free spot could be found. There was no organization, and the clothes were not protected. The clothes were mixed by size making it more difficult for the teen parents to find the right clothing for their babies. There were concerns about bugs and other critters getting mixed in with the baby clothing. This made it harder to get the teen parents what they needed. \r\n\r\nWith these storage bins, we have been able to keep the baby clothes protected and organized. The clothes were washed, folded and are now organized by size.
