Mindful Seating for Students With Emotional Disabilities

Funded Aug 18, 2024

Thank you again for your generosity! My students were so excited when we received our new meditation cushions! We immediately set them up so we could give them a "test run" with a short mindfulness minute at the end of the day. It made for a perfect ending to a long week!

Over the last few weeks we have been incorporating your gifts into our Social Emotional Learning class time when we do group mindfulness activities, want to change the "vibe" during whole group discussions, and some kids have even taken to using them for pillows during independent reading or as a place to release some frustration as mini punching bags. Who knew they could be so versatile!

The gift itself is wonderful and will be used for years to come but I think the bigger gift is that these kids know there are generous, caring people like you out there, caring about them!”

With gratitude,

Mr. Dellea
