Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Hello, looking to give our therapy room some of the basics that we need. Looking for some snacks as reinforcement, a therapy mat challenge balance during activities, and some storage (covered storage; the kids have trouble controlling themselves when they see games!).

The therapy mat is really cool because it challenges a kid (and they don't even know it!) Every time out core is activated and being used, it increases the oxygen going to the brain, increases learning!

donations go right to our therapy room, and our kiddos love the opportunity to get new and cool things. Please help out! We so appreciate any donations, my kids deserve the world!
