  • Snack Attack for My Young Scholars and Debate Team!

    Funded Jan 1, 2025

    I am truly grateful for your generosity in supporting my DonorsChoose project, which provided snacks for the students in my classroom and after school activities like Debate Team. Your kindness is making a significant difference in my students' lives.

    Many of my students face challenges that make focusing in school difficult, especially when they are hungry. Thanks to your donation, I now have the means to ensure they have the nourishment they need to stay energized and engaged throughout the day.

    The smiles on their faces when they see the snacks and the improved focus during lessons are direct results of your thoughtfulness. You’ve done more than just provide food; you’ve shown my students that there are people who care deeply about their well-being and success.

    On behalf of my students and myself, thank you for being such an important part of our classroom community. Your support inspires us to work harder, dream bigger, and never stop believing in the kindness of others.

    With heartfelt gratitude,”

    I hope this message finds you well. I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your generous support of our Design Classroom at Nicholas Senn High School. Your contribution has already had a profound impact on our students, particularly those in the Major Studies Program, who often face challenges in acquiring necessary classroom supplies.

    Thanks to your generosity, our Design courses have been transformed, allowing students to engage in a wide variety of projects throughout the year.

    When our students first explored the new materials, their excitement and curiosity were undeniable. Your support has helped create an environment where they feel empowered to innovate and express themselves. Our classroom is evolving into a dynamic Makerspace, complete with fully functional supplies that students can access as needed for their projects.

    Looking ahead, your support will continue to be a cornerstone of our students' success. With these resources at their fingertips, they are better equipped to tackle challenges and unleash their creative potential.
