This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My kindergarten students are energetic, curious, and full of potential—but sitting still in traditional desks all day doesn’t support the way they learn best. Flexible seating gives young learners the freedom to choose where and how they sit, helping them stay engaged, comfortable, and focused. Whether it's wobble stools, floor cushions, or bean bags, these seating options empower students to take ownership of their learning in a way that respects their individual needs. By donating, you're not just giving a chair—you're giving a child a better chance to learn, move, and thrive in a classroom that truly supports them. Your support helps create a more inclusive, dynamic, and joyful learning environment.
