To better service my students, I am in need of a media cart. I teach Visual Arts at an urban elementary school which services 365 students, grades K - 5.

In order to take full advantage of your generous donation of a LCD projector, a media cart would enable me to keep the equipment in a safe and secure area - instead of propping it up on boxes and books.

The versatility of a media cart would ensure that the equipment will remain intact and out of harms way. It would also help keep the students safe by keeping electrical cords contained and not strewn around the floor.

Your help will make it possible properly use the LCD projector you have generously donated. It will allow me to teach my students in a safe and efficient manner.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
