Comfy Cushions for Our School Library!
Funded Apr 22, 2024The seat cushions that we have added to part of the library have been the talk of the school! Everyone loves them! They have been so excited to have them and the seats are much more comfortable than before. I am now in the process of trying to get enough to finish the whole library!
I am so grateful for your support in making this dream a reality! I am so excited to have these cushions for the wooden chairs! The library is a high traffic area and I want my students to feel comfortable while they are in the library space and during classes and this project is making that happen for my students and faculty using the library space! Thank you so much again for your support!”
