Help me give my students plants to clean the air and create a warm environment for studying.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wiltse's classroom raised $300
This project is fully funded
My Project
We have a huge school library with beautiful floor to ceiling windows and a grand central location within the building. But with outdated furniture, carpet, and surroundings, I need plants to create a warm environment.
Students studying and relaxing will be able to do so with cleaner air and a calm environment with these plants.
I also have students who ask to water and care for the plants, which allows for some stress relief during their school day. Thanks for helping me make this large space feel warm and inviting!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
