My Project

Seat sacks for our basic belongings! My kindergarten class has 25 students. The current tables we have do not have drawers, which makes it difficult to store our basic daily belongings such as pencil cases, iPads and headphones. The current seat sacks we have break easily. Some of them have already so damaged that I cannot even repair them. By donating to this project, you help improve our overall learning environment. With these heavy-duty seat sacks my students can reach their supplies directly without walking around the classroom to get them. This makes our learning more effective!
