Your generosity has brought more than just food into our classroom—it has given my students energy, focus, and a sense of being cared for.\r\n\r\nWhen the snacks first arrived, the students were overjoyed. Their faces lit up with excitement as they saw the choices laid out, and many of them shared how happy they were to know they wouldn't have to feel hungry while learning. One student even said, \"Now I can think better because my tummy isn't growling!\" Moments like that reminded me of how meaningful your support truly is.\r\n\r\nWe use the snacks daily, especially during our morning and afternoon lessons. Having something to eat helps my students stay engaged and motivated, and I've noticed a big difference in their ability to concentrate. For example, during a recent small-group reading activity, I handed out snacks beforehand. The students were more settled, and their discussions about the story were richer and more focused than usual. It showed me how a simple snack can have a huge impact on learning.\r\n\r\nYour kindness is making a real difference in my students' day-to-day experience at school. Because of you, they feel valued and supported, and they are better able to do the most important work of childhood—learning and growing.","fullyFundedDate":1757683174143,"projectUrl":"project/wake-up-snacks/9570496/","projectTitle":"Wake Up Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bocanegra","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5900020_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1589495397375","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5900020"},{"teacherId":5900020,"projectId":9461142,"letterContent":"I want to take a moment to thank you for your generosity in supporting our classroom project.
