My Project

Our kindergarten classroom is located in an older building that struggles with excessive moisture, especially due to window issues. The damp environment not only leads to a moldy smell but also damages our learning materials, supplies, and even the furniture. More importantly, it creates an unhealthy atmosphere for our young learners, which can lead to respiratory issues and discomfort.

To address this, we are seeking a dehumidifier to help reduce the moisture in our classroom.

A dehumidifier will help improve air quality, prevent further damage to our materials, and create a healthier, more comfortable space for our students to learn and grow. Your support will make a tremendous difference in helping us provide a safe, clean, and effective learning environment. Thank you for helping our classroom breathe a little easier!
