It will have a lasting impact on my 2nd grade students by giving them access to art supplies that bring learning to life and celebrate cultural diversity. With these materials, students will be able to express themselves creatively while exploring the traditions, stories, and art forms from cultures around the world. These hands-on experiences help students build pride in their own identities while developing empathy and appreciation for others.\r\n\r\nArt provides a meaningful way for young learners to connect what they see, read, and feel. Through culturally inspired projects—such as designing traditional patterns, creating community murals, or illustrating folktales—students will strengthen both their creativity and their understanding of the world around them. Your support helps create a classroom where every child feels represented, inspired, and confident to share their voice.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in our students' growth. Your contribution will not only fill our art shelves but will also fill our classroom with excitement, creativity, and cultural awareness that will last far beyond this school year.","fullyFundedDate":1754707841081,"projectUrl":"project/bright-minds-bright-colors/9485298/","projectTitle":"Bright Minds, Bright Colors!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Applegate","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9074050_orig.png?crop=1592,1592,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1686630127498","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9074050"},{"teacherId":8677130,"projectId":9646307,"letterContent":"Since our class received the bandages, Kleenex, hygiene products, and Lysol wipes (because other bandages weren't available) it has had a great impact in our class. When my students have a runny nose, they no longer have to walk down the hall or to the first floor to the nurse's office in order to blow their nose. They just need to go to the corner of our classroom they get a tissue and they blow their nose. Additionally, I don't have to worry about asking my school site for tissue and be concerned about being told that I already asked for some.\r\n\r\nThe bandages are extremely helpful as well. My students know they are able to get a band aid for a hangnail and/or a small cut in a drawer. Our learning isn't interrupted, I am able to continue with my instrtuction and the students don't have to walk down to the first floor, wait in line, and walk all the way back to their classroom just for a band aid.\r\n\r\nFinally, the wipes are useful for clean ups, but also help keep a class disinfected especially during flu season.
