Clean, New Rugs for Our Little Bottoms!

Help me give my students new rugs for our classroom. Our big rug desperately needs replaced and the smaller ones do too!

My Project

We desperately need rugs for our Pre-K room. Some of our rugs are 20 years old. We have cleaned and although they are clean they don’t look like it. COVID did these poor rugs in! The extra cleaning was all they could handle. Please help us replace them. Our elementary school is in a very small town with about a 25% poverty rate. We are a free breakfast and lunch school. Extra funding for things like this is hard to come by. Please help us get new clean rugs for our littles bottoms.
