My Project

These 5th grade students are absolutely ecstatic to begin the school year. The only thing missing in our classroom is a comfortable space to sit on the floor.

With your donation, students will have a cozy place to learn about our 50 states (among other things).

Any amount of donation is truly appreciated. I have never been funded before and would love to give my students a rug. The ceramic floors in our classroom are often cold, dirty, and not suitable for sitting on. All we need is a cozy rug to complete our class.
