Your support has made a significant impact on the well-being and success of many young lives.\r\n\r\nAs a counselor in a low-income community, I see firsthand how critical it is for our students to have their basic needs met in order to thrive academically and emotionally. For many of the children we serve, a snack can make all the difference—whether it's helping them stay focused during class or simply giving them a sense of care and stability in an environment where they may face challenges beyond their control.\r\n\r\nThanks to your kindness, our students are now better able to concentrate on their schoolwork, engage with their peers, and most importantly, feel valued and supported. Your contribution goes far beyond just providing food—it sends a message that someone cares, that they are not alone, and that their well-being is important.\r\n\r\nIt's amazing to see how a small gesture can have such a profound impact. On behalf of my students, I want to say thank you for your generosity, your compassion, and your belief in the potential of every child.

With the generous contributions, we were able to provide a steady supply of snacks, which has helped keep students energized and focused throughout the day. Having access to quick snacks has made a noticeable difference, especially for those who may come to school without a full breakfast or lunch. These small but powerful boosts of nourishment have helped improve attention in class, participation in activities, and build great rapport with our counseling department.\r\nIn addition to the snacks, the donation also allowed us to restock our hygiene drawers on campus with essential products .This support has helped students feel more confident, comfortable, and cared for. When the students were able to see the items we had for their needs they were over the moon that they were just able to have the necessities they need. Our next step, would be to continue searching and asking for donations as our school funding does not cover these type of items. We would like to provide students with snacks and hygiene every year if possible.\r\nOur students are incredibly thankful for the kindness and generosity shown by the donors. Many have expressed their appreciation, recognizing that these donations come from people who care about their well-being and success. It's heartwarming to see how such acts of giving can create a ripple effect of positivity and gratitude within our school community. We are deeply appreciative for the support that has brought real and meaningful change to our students' daily lives.","fullyFundedDate":1735686590893,"projectUrl":"project/nourish-and-flourish-essential-hygiene/8754459/","projectTitle":"Nourish and Flourish: Essential Hygiene and Snacks for Our Students","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Garcia- Rojas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8720112"},{"teacherId":9624279,"projectId":8549851,"letterContent":"My classes love their reading corner.

While these may seem like small, everyday things, their impact has been powerful and deeply felt by our students.\r\n\r\nSnacks have become a lifeline for many of our students. We've seen students who used to struggle to stay awake or focused in the mornings now coming to class more alert and engaged. One student shared, \"I used to come to school without breakfast, and it was hard to get through first period. Now I know I can grab something real quick, and it helps me concentrate.\" Providing consistent access to snacks has not only supported learning but also made students feel that their needs are recognized and that someone cares.\r\n\r\nLotion and hygiene items have helped restore confidence and comfort. For students who may not have access to these items at home, simply being able to take care of dry skin or feel fresh during the day can be a game changer. One student discreetly told us, \"It feels good to have something I need without having to ask or feel embarrassed.\" This small boost in self-esteem translates directly into better participation and improved mental health.\r\n\r\nHair ties, though small, have been incredibly appreciated—especially by students involved in PE, sports, or hands-on classes. It's one of those things that, when forgotten or unavailable, can make a student feel unprepared or distracted. Now, with extras available, students can focus on learning rather than stressing over their appearance or comfort. \"I was so grateful the day I forgot mine and there was one in the office. It saved me during track practice,\" shared one student.\r\n\r\nJuice boxes have also made a noticeable difference, especially for students who may not eat breakfast. Teachers have reported that students are more likely to start their day on the right foot when they've had something to drink and something light to eat. It's also created a welcoming environment in our counseling office, where students know they can stop by for a quick pick-me-up—physically and emotionally.\r\n\r\nBeyond meeting basic needs, these items have created a sense of community and care. Students know that they're not alone, and that their school is a place where their well-being matters. These small acts of support have helped build trust and open the door for deeper conversations around academic and emotional challenges.\r\n\r\nThank you for being part of the reason our students can walk into school feeling ready, respected, and cared for. Your generosity has made a real, tangible difference—and it shows in their smiles, their focus, and their confidence.","fullyFundedDate":1732142451166,"projectUrl":"project/please-help-support-our-1800-high-schoo/8791054/","projectTitle":"Please Help Support Our 1,800 High School Students","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Acosta","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9739565_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760131182381","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9739565"},{"teacherId":9728409,"projectId":8736943,"letterContent":"The students were so appreciative with all the materials that were donated to the program.
