My Project

I am requesting an air purifier and stadium seats for my third grade classroom. Our classroom would be a cleaner and cozier place for my students to learn and grow with these additions. Since the pandemic air quality has become a major focus for the well-being of our students. Making them feel safe and comfortable is a priority for a classroom community.

By donating to this project you would be helping my students to feel comfortable and secure in their classroom environment.

My third grade students are deserving of a learning environment which is safe and comfortable. Having an air purifier would make the environment cleaner. With stadium seating my students could be comfortable working in a variety of spaces around the room.
