Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

Hello! Thank you for your interest in helping my classroom. My students and I need new stools for our art classroom desperately. I currently have a mismatch of chairs and stools, which has caused issues among students arguing about which to sit in. My current stools and chairs are difficult for some to put on the tables, as required by the custodians to clean the floor, and we need some lighter versions.

This project will be one of many until I get the 30 matching, stackable stools I need.

Will you help us?
