We've been able to provide essentials such as hygiene products, clothing, and food to students who need them most. These resources have made an immediate difference in helping students feel ready to learn each day, without worrying about things outside of their control. The simple act of having access to deodorant, hair supplies, or a quick breakfast item has had a huge impact on both their self-esteem and focus in class.\r\nWhen my students first saw the fully stocked care closet, their faces lit up with surprise and relief. Some quietly whispered \"thank you\" while others offered hugs or big smiles. One student even shared \"I always felt self-consious about not having things I needed. Now I can take what I need without feeling embarassed!\" It was a powerful reminder that meeting basic needs truly supports learning in every way!\r\nMoving forward, our class is working to help sustain the care closet as a community project. Students are taking part in organizing, restocking, and even writing kind notes to include with donated items. These small acts of service are teaching them empathy, responsibility, and the importance of giving back. Your support has not only met immediate needs. it's sparked a sense of community and compassion that will continue to grow throughout the school year. We are all so thankful for your generosity!","fullyFundedDate":1754243965941,"projectUrl":"project/stocking-up-smiles-a-care-closet-for-ki/9423944/","projectTitle":"Stocking Up Smiles: A Care Closet for Kids!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Snellbaker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10059980_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y69&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750362764497","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10059980"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_124529","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1290,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":43,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 10","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":73.5,"schoolId":124529,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mast Community Charter School III on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mast Community Charter School III","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/philadelphia-city-school-district/mast-3-charter-school/124529"}
