My Project

I teach a wonderful group of elementary students who are growing as readers every single day. Our little ones come to my classroom ready to learn, explore books, and build the skills they need for success. My learners are full of energy and curiosity. I would love to provide them with safe, comfortable, and supportive chairs where they can read, focus, and thrive.

When my students are comfortable, they can put all their energy into learning.

With your help, these comfy chairs will help provide a space where reading grows.
