My Project

I’m looking to fund 2 rugs for my second grade classroom at title 1 school in South Carolina. This will make 20 students have a cozy and comfortable learning environment. It will also help years to come have the same warm space and structured learning space at the carpet.

The larger carpet will be used for whole group lessons and keep students in a designated space.

The smaller carpet is for our library corner and will offer the students an area to relax and read a good book.

We are appreciative of anything you can give.
