Helping a Family
Funded May 28, 2020
I would like to thank you for contributing to my student's family. Alex lives in the Bronx with his mother and two siblings. His father got Covid-19 and was in intensive care and was on an incubator. Because of your donations my student, Alex was able to successfully complete the school year. Alex and his family were able to receive school supplies, groceries, paper goods and cleaning supplies which were scarce at the time.
Everyone at my school was praying for Alex's father. We were so happy when Alex's father was released from the hospital. Alex's father has not yet fully recovered but the supplies that you sent helped the family greatly.
Alex and his mother were very moved when they saw the supplies and the gift lifted their spirits. Alex's family are eternally grateful.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Yurek
This classroom project was brought to life by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and 6 other donors.

This packet is filled with groceries, cleaning supplies and paper goods to help a young family get though a very sad and desperate situation, their father is in the hospital struggling with Covid-19. School supplies such as pens, copying paper and crayons will help the children complete their assignments during remote learning. The mom needs the supplies to help her three young sons survive during this difficult time. All three boys need the items to help them learn. One of the young boys is a student of mine who is one of the nicest students I have ever met. It is terrible that the family has to go through such a devastating experience.
