My Project

I am writing to ask for help with providing a comforting atmosphere for my students by providing them with a space to learn within the proximity of our smart board.

My students have very little space to fit on the small carpet that I have and I believe that they would be super thankful for this donation.

The goal for my students is to have them learn in an environment that is comforting.

The school that we attend is a low-income school that has very little room in the budget for all classrooms to receive a rug. I unfortunately was unable to be given an academic rug for the past 6 years and just learned about this platform.
