My Project

I teach 4th, 5th, and 6th grade special education in a high-poverty area where resources are limited. My students face many challenges, both inside and outside the classroom, and traditional seating and learning environments often don't meet their needs.

I'm seeking support to provide flexible Seating options- such as floor cushions, wobble stools, and rocker chairs- to help them feel more comfortable and engaged throughout the day.

I'm also asking for headphones and noise-canceling headsets to help students focus in a sometimes chaotic environment, giving them a better chance to succeed academically and emotionally.

Your donation will go directly towards creating a more supportive, inclusive, and effective learning space for children who need it most.
