Help me give my students a warm classroom. I entered this morning to discover the temperature was 55 degrees and it's only mid-October!

My Students
Some days for my kids are rough. Many come from unstable settings at home, without food security, without their basic needs met. It's a daily struggle, but still... they write, they create, they show up.
Big-hearted.
Passionate. Driven.
My students are brave and capable of great accomplishment, but they are often stymied by conditions out of their control. They are leaders in the making, and they want to be in class. Lack of basic resources should not be holding them back, but at the moment, it's tough to concentrate when it's so cold.
My Project
It's only October and the room is 55 degrees. I've been told that half the compressors on the roof were put in only two years ago, but the company then went out of business. Now, the school is a hodge podge of toasty rooms and rooms like mine. Last week, I started making cocoa for the kids in order to warm them up. Having a few tower heaters would go a long way. I brought one in from home today and already there is a small difference.
Any help from you all would be so appreciated.
I am also throwing in a request for tissue. Our district no longer supplies it.
