My Project

Students learn best in a comfortable learning environment, which is what these chairs and seat cushions provide! A room that is functional is a productive room. We spend time on the carpet and these cushions would keep us focused on learning while our bodies are at res.! There is little money to upgrade seating but it means so much to the students. They feel so special when they have a special place to listen and learn. Thank you for sponsoring our special seating. May your kindness come back to you in unexpected ways!
