Moveable Kitchen for Students in Wheelchairs

My students need a Rubbermaid Instrument Cart.

"Hello. I teach the most wonderful students in the world. My students all have multiple disabilities and love going to school. They make each day a precious gift and I'm so fortunate to be their teacher. These students live in a poverty stricken area on top of all the mental and physical challenges they face daily. We all (including myself) take so much for granted (talking, walking, writing, etc.). These students take nothing for granted and really could use your help. My students really want to learn some cooking skills. I have four students who are unable to speak and three that are also unable to walk. They so desperately want to be independent one day and hope that they can have additional tools to work on life skills. My students are so much more intelligent then what they are given credit for by some. These students are my heroes and I'll do whatever I can to help them make their dreams a reality.

My students who care confined to wheelchairs really want a rolling cart to enable them to do some simple cooking in the room. They are extremely excited about this possible opportunity and really hope that someone is willing to fund this project for them. You will never know the impact that you can make on these students. Something as simple as a cart can be so empowering to someone that doesn't have the access to the kitchen due to their wheelchair and is transitioning to another part of their life in a couple of year. If you can help at all, then please give to these students.

We need a Rubbermaid Instrument Cart. This will enable the students who are confined in wheelchairs to have the kitchen supplies brought to them. The learning activities/projects can be given to them at a height that is compatible with their wheelchairs. This is something that most of take for granted, but those confined in wheelchairs face everyday.

Your help will ensure that my students dreams of learning to cook will become a reality. I always assure them that people do care and there is still a lot of good in the world. Please help me show this to them by funding this project. Thanks for reviewing this project and best wishes for the future.

Mrs. H.
Grades 9-12
