Bookshelves and Bins for Organization

Help me give my students a clean, safe, and organized classroom by supplying bookshelves for their learning materials and curriculum!

My Project

This bookshelf will allow my students to have a safe, organized, and clean classroom where they can reliably find their needed materials. I already have hundreds of books for them to enjoy, curriculum organized and accounted for, and space blocked out for the shelf.

Your donation will allow me and my students to quickly access everything we need for our classroom.

We have the materials we need but our school did not secure funding for furnishing our new building addition. My students for many years will benefit from these organizational structures and we are grateful for your help!
