Your support has made a meaningful difference for our students. For many children, talking about trauma or deep emotions can feel too personal and too difficult. They often don't have the words, and sometimes they don't want to speak at all. These books give them a way in. When a child reads about feelings like grief, anger, loneliness, or being different, it helps them realize these experiences are part of being human. Seeing their own struggles reflected on the page brings a sense of relief: they're not the only one, and their feelings make sense.\r\n\r\nThe stories you provided help normalize big emotions and offer language for children who can't express their experiences directly. A child who might not describe their own pain can easily talk about a character, and from there, we gently open the door to their own feelings. These books make sessions deeper, more meaningful, and more accessible. They allow me to offer psychoeducation in a way that feels safe, comforting, and developmentally appropriate.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting our students' emotional well-being and for giving them tools to understand themselves better. Your generosity has truly strengthened the heart of our counseling work.","fullyFundedDate":1758133219958,"projectUrl":"project/building-emotional-strength-through-book/9707780/","projectTitle":"Building Emotional Strength Through Books and Play","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jacobsen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10097710_orig.jpg?crop=2772,2772,x0,y314&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757697883254","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10097710"},{"teacherId":10097710,"projectId":9508715,"letterContent":"I want to sincerely thank you for your generous donation through DonorsChoose. The new board games and play materials you provided have already brought so much warmth and joy into our counseling room and into the lives of our students.\r\n\r\nOur school serves an underserved community, and many of our young kids don't have access to a wide variety of toys at home. Walking into a room filled with choices—games, figurines, sensory items, and materials that invite imagination—gives them something they rarely experience: the freedom to choose what speaks to them. It has been amazing to watch how each child gravitates toward something different. Their choices show so much of their unique personalities, interests, and inner worlds.\r\n\r\nThis new richness and variety in the room has made the space feel more welcoming and safe. Kids come in and immediately spot something that makes them curious or excited. For children who often carry stress or big feelings, being able to enter a room that feels full, colorful, and inviting helps them settle into play more easily. It gives them permission to simply be kids—to explore, create, imagine, and enjoy themselves in a way that is both healing and developmentally important.\r\n\r\nThank you for choosing to support a school that doesn't always have the resources to provide these opportunities. Your generosity has made our counseling room more nurturing, more engaging, and truly more therapeutic.\r\n\r\nI am deeply grateful for your kindness. It is felt every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1757572196350,"projectUrl":"project/play-to-heal-support-our-counseling-roo/9508715/","projectTitle":"Play to Heal: Support Our Counseling Room","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jacobsen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10097710_orig.jpg?crop=2772,2772,x0,y314&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757697883254","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10097710"},{"teacherId":9866335,"projectId":9051840,"letterContent":"Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your dedication and love for education. \r\n\r\nBecause of your generous contribution, 7 of my students have grown from well below benchmark to either at benchmark or ABOVE BENCHMARK!! \r\n\r\nThis stunning progress further solidifies my belief that all students' success is simply a matter of providing the right environment for them to thrive.

It may seem small, but you are making the WORLD of difference in our classroom. It is no exaggeration to say that every little contribution goes a long way at school.\r\n\r\nHaving enough headphones has been a game-changer! Because the rest of our class can independently use Chromebooks, it allowed us teachers to focus our energy on the students who needed the most help. The impact: three out of nine students got the help they needed to graduate from reading intervention. Now, we teachers can hone in on giving our other six students the tools they need to be ready for 1st grade. \r\n\r\nEvery kid deserves to have a quality education.
