Desks for Success: Empowering Students, Building Futures!

Help me give my students new tables and chairs. I teach 10th Grade English, and my room is currently equipped with individual desks that are mostly broken and too small for my students.

My Project

I am a 10th grade English teacher, and in class we engage in collaborative lessons and projects that are hindered by the individual desks. Many of the desks are not only broken but also too small for my growing students, leading to discomfort and distraction during lessons. This substandard learning environment directly impacts my students' academic performance and overall well-being. I believe that every child deserves a conducive space to thrive academically and reach their full potential. By supporting this fundraiser to purchase new tables and chairs, you can make a profound difference in the lives of my students. Together, let's provide them with the resources they need to succeed and create a positive learning environment where they can excel. Thank you for your generosity and commitment to education.
