My Project
Help Our Kindergarteners Stay Organized & Ready to Learn!
We’re raising funds to provide seatpockets for three kindergarten classrooms at a Title I school, where many of our students face economic challenges, but come to school each day full of curiosity and excitement to learn.
What are seatpockets?
Seatpockets are sturdy fabric organizers that hang on the back of a student’s chair, giving them a personal space to keep their supplies, books, and folders tidy and within reach. For young learners, especially in classrooms without desks, these simple tools make a massive difference in independence, focus, and classroom flow.
Why your help matters:
In Title I schools, resources are limited, and teachers often pay out of pocket for basic supplies. With your support, we can ensure that every child in these three classrooms has what they need to start their educational journey with dignity, organization, and confidence.
Donate today and help give these young students the tools to thrive. Every contribution, big or small, gets us closer to a well-organized, joyful classroom for our littlest learners.
Thank you for investing in the future—one seat pocket at a time!
