Your kindness has made a real difference in their daily lives and I wanted to take a moment to share just how much it's meant to them.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the hygiene products, their reactions were a mix of excitement, relief, and gratitude. One student said, \"Wow, this is really for us?\" while another immediately grabbed some lotion and smiled, saying, \"I always forget mine at home, this is perfect.\" It may seem like a small thing, but having access to these essentials has taken a huge weight off their shoulders. Now, they can come to school feeling more comfortable, confident and ready to focus on learning instead of worrying about personal hygiene.\r\n\r\nWhat's been really special is how this has brought out even more of the supportive, caring nature of my students. They remind each other that the supplies are there when needed and I've noticed that they hold themselves with more confidence throughout the day. That's what this project was all about—making sure they feel good, so they can do their best.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, my students can focus on their education without unnecessary distractions. They feel seen, valued, and cared for in a way that goes beyond the classroom. Your generosity has done more than provide supplies—it has given my students the reassurance that people believe in them and want to see them succeed.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart (and on behalf of some very happy and grateful students), thank you!","fullyFundedDate":1733456204567,"projectUrl":"project/empowering-confidence-essential-hygiene/8652279/","projectTitle":"Empowering Confidence: Essential Hygiene Supplies for Every Class","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Arambula","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8165203_orig.png?crop=1026,1026,x137,y336&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1635902441381","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-arambula"},{"teacherId":5519117,"projectId":6833136,"letterContent":"Thank you for making this happen for my students. \r\n\r\nThis has helped with building my students fine motor skills and at the time helped them be little STEAM builders and an opportunity to work with their typical peers to build in an inclusive environment spending time together.
