My Project

I am an elementary school library teacher in a school of over five hundred students in kindergarten through sixth grade. I would very much love to give our library a makeover for the new school year, and would very much appreciate your help!

We are in need of replacing some of our supplies, but I am super excited to create a warm, inviting reading nook with a brand new colorful rug so I can read stories to my students.

I cannot wait to see their faces when they see the makeover in September.

Thank you so much for your consideration!
