  • Warmth and Care

    Funded Dec 22, 2024

    I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to extend my deepest gratitude for your generous support of our "Warmth and Care" project on DonorsChoose. Thanks to your incredible contribution, our students now have the coats they need to stay warm during the colder months, ensuring that they can attend school comfortably and with confidence.

    As an educator, it is incredibly fulfilling to see my students thrive, not only academically but also personally, knowing that their basic needs are met. Many of our students come from families who face financial hardships, and your kindness has made a significant impact on their lives. You have provided more than just coats; you have given them a sense of security and pride that will stay with them long after the winter months.

    The difference you have made is truly invaluable. Our students now arrive at school feeling comfortable and ready to engage in learning, knowing that they have the support of kind-hearted individuals like you. Your donation has not only kept them warm physically but has also ignited a sense of hope and community that will continue to inspire them.

    On behalf of my students and myself, I want to sincerely thank you for your generosity. Your investment in their well-being and education is something we will always remember. We are incredibly grateful for your willingness to make a difference in their lives.

    Thank you once again for your warmth, kindness, and support.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Thelisma

  • Confetti Joy

    Funded Sep 6, 2024

    I'm so incredibly grateful for your support of my "Confetti" classroom decor project. Thanks to your generous donation, my classroom has been completely transformed into a vibrant, joyful, and welcoming space.

    The bright colors, thoughtful touches, and cheerful decorations you helped provide have made a huge impact—not just on how the room looks, but on how my students feel. From the moment they walk through the door, they light up with excitement. One of my students even said, "It feels like a party in here every day!" That joy has created a space where students feel happy, safe, and ready to learn.

    Your kindness helped me turn a classroom into a community—one filled with laughter, care, and celebration of every little success. Thank you for bringing so much light and love into our learning environment. You've made a lasting difference.

    With heartfelt appreciation,”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Thelisma
