The resources we received—ranging from hands-on STEM kits to books and basic supplies—have made a world of difference for my students. These tools have not only supported their learning but have also given them a sense of pride and ownership in their education. For many of my students, this was the first time they had access to high-quality materials that matched their creativity and potential.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular, Amiya, has truly blossomed since the arrival of these resources. Amiya has always been curious but often held back in class discussions. After engaging with the new coding kits, she began staying after school to work on mini projects and even started teaching her classmates how to use the tools. The spark in her eyes when her code finally ran for the first time was unforgettable. Because of your support, students like Amiya are not only learning—they're discovering what they're capable of. Thank you for investing in their futures.","fullyFundedDate":1739376313474,"projectUrl":"project/hospital-homebound-students-using-stem/9100770/","projectTitle":"Hospital Homebound Students Using STEM","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Tara","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9350912_orig.jpg?crop=1440,1440,x0,y331&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745264970903","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9350912"},{"teacherId":827668,"projectId":9079113,"letterContent":"I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous support of our \"classroom\" and for funding our new math manipulatives.

These manipulatives are not just supplies — they are transforming how my children understand math concepts. Students are building number sense, strengthening their problem-solving skills, and most importantly, gaining confidence in themselves as mathematicians.\r\n\r\nWhether it's watching a kindergartner light up when they realize how two cubes make a tower of three, or a fifth grader suddenly grasping the concept of decimals through visual models, your generosity is making a real and lasting impact in our classroom every single day.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in my students and in the power of education.
