My students have benefited so much from having a hygiene cart in the classroom. Having easy access to basic hygiene supplies is a game changer for some of them.\r\n\r\nSince the hygiene cart was put out, students have been able to grab what they need between and during classes. Some students even come tell me that they've been \"shopping\" and excitedly list off what they picked up from the cart.\r\n\r\nWhen the cart first appeared, most students thought that they had to ask to use it and they were so timid about getting supplies. Now, just a few weeks later, it's like they have always had access to the cart. They help themselves and let me know when a drawer is running low. They are so much more confident and it's easy to see that having access to these supplies has allowed them to come out of their shells.","fullyFundedDate":1764784174015,"projectUrl":"project/hygiene-cart-restock/9892376/","projectTitle":"Hygiene Cart Restock","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dorsey","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9578022_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1719468582623","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9578022"},{"teacherId":9714061,"projectId":9688180,"letterContent":"Thank you for providing the supplies we truly needed in 6th grade Science.
