At our school, we serve students with a wide range of needs, and food insecurity is a very real concern for many of them. We provide snacks every day because we know that students cannot always learn, create, and participate when they are hungry. Having snacks available means students can quietly grab something when they need it without having to explain why. It has become a simple but important part of our school day.\r\n\r\nOne of the things I have noticed most is how much more comfortable students are when they know food is available. A snack can seem like a small thing, but for a student who may not have eaten that morning or may not know when their next meal will be, it can mean a great deal. Our students are able to come into class, have something to eat, and focus on their artwork, projects, and learning instead of worrying about being hungry. The snacks have also helped create a classroom environment where students feel cared for and supported. Your donation has helped us continue providing this resource consistently, and our students truly appreciate it.\r\n\r\nWe will continue using these snacks throughout the school year as we work on our art projects and other classroom activities. Thank you for recognizing that supporting students means supporting the whole student. Your generosity has provided more than just food—it has helped our students feel welcomed, cared for, and ready to learn. We are incredibly grateful for your support!","fullyFundedDate":1660402027429,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-are-good-for-all-ages-of-students/6689263/","projectTitle":"Snacks are Good for all Ages of Students!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Harrison","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5150504_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753825171965","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5150504"},{"teacherId":9778315,"projectId":10546712,"letterContent":"We at Troy High cannot thank you enough for your kindness and giving to our snacks project.

Many students expressed gratitude, and it was clear that something as simple as having a snack available made them feel cared for and supported. Students often ask if they can have a snack before beginning a lesson or while working on longer projects, and having these resources available has helped eliminate hunger as a distraction. Instead of worrying about an empty stomach, students are better able to concentrate, participate in discussions, and remain engaged in their learning.\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful moments has been seeing students quietly take a snack when they need one without feeling embarrassed or singled out. Knowing that everyone has access to nutritious snacks has helped create a welcoming, supportive classroom environment where students feel comfortable and ready to succeed.\r\n\r\nAs we continue through the school year, these snacks will remain available to students during extended learning activities, project-based lessons, and after-school opportunities. Your generosity is helping us remove barriers to learning while showing our students that their well-being matters.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and helping create a classroom where every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. Your support has made a lasting difference, and we are truly grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1669741494375,"projectUrl":"project/all-kids-deserve-snack-time-at-school/6827219/","projectTitle":"All Kids Deserve Snack Time at School!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Harrison","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5150504_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753825171965","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5150504"},{"teacherId":8507693,"projectId":10163861,"letterContent":"Thank your for helping me to get the new num works graphing calculator to test out with my classes.
