Mrs. Kemp from Broken Bow OK is requesting materials related to Food, Clothing & Hygiene through DonorsChoose, the #1 classroom funding site for teachers.

Clean Environment! Healthier Kids!

Help me give my students a clean environment and healthy surrounding, by donating to the 5th grade team in the purchase of these BISSELL vacuums.

My Students

My Students are young, innocent 5th graders that deserve to be offered the best when it comes to safety and cleanliness. I want to offer these children an education and minimize the concerns of contracting COVID by keeping it clean.

My Project

This project is what we call the "hidden" curriculum. Although a vacuum cleaner isn't teaching a curriculum, it is helping that student stay safer. A clean environment with the safety of our students in mind is a top priority right now.

COVID19 has changed the learning environment in an extreme way, and t keeping things cleaner than ever before is one of those changes.

However, as most people are aware, schools can't always afford everything a teacher needs in their classrooms. Right now, we're on the share system with 1 vacuum per six teachers which means we're not able to clean the way we need to every day. Furthermore, the vacuums we do have are in need. Please donate and help us, help the children. Thank you.
