Clean Air to Create!

Help me give my students clean air in the classroom to make it a clean creative zone!

My Project

Every day, my young artists mix paints, spray fixatives, work with clay dust, and use markers in our classroom — creating wonderful art but also filling the air with particles that aren’t ideal for growing lungs. An air purifier would give my students a cleaner, healthier space to create in, especially during allergy season and cold-and-flu months. With so many little hands and big imaginations at work, good air quality helps everyone focus, breathe easier, and stay healthier. Your support would make a real difference in the daily wellbeing of these budding artists. Thank you for considering my classroom!
