These hoodies have made a meaningful impact far beyond just keeping our students warm.\r\n\r\n🧥 How we're using the hoodies We integrated the hoodies into our \"House Day\" initiative, where students participate in House Day activities and team-building exercises. EAch student is part of a House and each student BELONGS! The hoodies kept them warm and focused, allowing us to extend our learning beyond the classroom walls.\r\n\r\n🎉 Student reactions The moment the hoodies arrived was unforgettable. Students lit up with excitement—some even hugged their hoodies before putting them on! For many, this was their first brand-new piece of clothing in a long time. One student said, \"I feel like I belong here now,\" which speaks volumes about the emotional impact of feeling seen and cared for.\r\n\r\n📚 What's next for our students With the warmth and comfort these hoodies provide, students are more engaged during outdoor lessons and after-school programs. Next, we're diving into a community storytelling project where students will write and share personal narratives. The confidence they've gained from this gift is already showing in their voices and participation.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has wrapped our students in warmth—literally and emotionally. Thank you for being part of their journey.","fullyFundedDate":1735704888916,"projectUrl":"project/baby-its-cold-outside/8990065/","projectTitle":"Baby, It's Cold Outside!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Drechsler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9774717"},{"teacherId":4855798,"projectId":9300703,"letterContent":"Thank you so much. for donating the calculators to my classroom.
