With the times of allergies and illness coming into peak throughout the year, your materials have helped maintain the classroom clean and sanitary. It was interesting to see how fast tissues were used and the hand sanitizer was completely used to the last drop by the students. We are a school where due to the frequency and urgent need of these supplies, we never have enough. \r\n\r\nI sincerely am grateful of your generosity. Not to mention, the folders have made it easy to provide every student with a place to keep all their mathematic work neat and in one place I am almost out of folders because the kids love them, and some of the families can't even afford one. how do you specifically only teach immigrant children that have come from a different country and they aren't used to the weather or allergies that come with living in New England and this has been such a refreshing time for me to tell them that someone cares about them. I always try to make sure that they have everything that they need, but it usually comes out a pricey cost. \r\nI am forever grateful for all you have done.","fullyFundedDate":1753832109174,"projectUrl":"project/starting-off-prepared-and-sanitary/9418843/","projectTitle":"Starting Off Prepared and Sanitary","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Palencia Maldonado","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9864198_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1733354323169","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9864198"},{"teacherId":9204337,"projectId":7706293,"letterContent":"On behalf of my students at Thurgood Marshall Middle School in Lynn, MA, I want to extend my deepest gratitude for your kind donations of hygiene products—including deodorant, toothbrushes, menstrual products, and more.\r\n\r\nOver 80% of our students are living in poverty, and many are classified as high needs, with some facing the challenges of unstable housing.
