My Project

Getting a new classroom rug is so important this school year. During Covid, all of our rugs had to be stored away which caused major stains and damage. The cost of these items is too far out of my personal budget, so I am reaching out to generous donors who share my commitment to education and child development. Your support will not only provide a physical upgrade to our classroom but also contribute significantly to the educational experience of each student. By investing in our classroom rug project, you are investing in the future of our children, ensuring they have a safe, comfortable, and inspiring space to learn, grow, and thrive.

Securing a new classroom rug is essential to creating a conducive learning environment that supports my students' academic and emotional growth.

As an educator, I strive to provide a space where every child feels valued and comfortable. Currently, our classroom rug is worn out, stained, and threadbare, posing a safety risk and diminishing the welcoming ambiance I aim to cultivate. A new rug would not only enhance the physical comfort of my students but also serve as a focal point for group activities, discussions, and storytime sessions. It would create a central hub where students can gather, share ideas, and build a sense of community. I thank everyone who takes the time to come here and support teachers and students for many years to come.
