Comfortable Carpets for Curious Minds

Help me give my students a safe and comfortable place to gather, learn, and grow together.

My Project

My students are incredible children who learn and grow in unique ways every day. As EC Preschool students, they spend much of their day building communication skills, practicing social interactions, exploring academic concepts through play, and developing independence. Our classroom carpet serves as the heart of these activities. It is where we gather for circle time, listen to stories, sing songs, learn new skills, and build friendships.

The carpets in our classroom are used throughout the day for learning, play, small-group instruction, and daily rest time.

After years of heavy use, our current rugs are worn and no longer provide the clean, comfortable environment our students deserve.

The new classroom carpets will provide inviting spaces where students can learn, collaborate, and participate in classroom activities. The seating carpet will help students understand personal space, follow routines, and engage during whole-group lessons. The larger carpet will provide a comfortable area for play-based learning, therapy activities, and rest time.

These carpets will help create a welcoming, supportive classroom environment where every child feels safe, comfortable, and ready to learn. Thank you for helping us provide a space that meets the needs of our youngest learners.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
