Light Up the Classroom

Help me give my students a more comfortable learning setting with the addition of lamps to the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Grant's classroom raised $161

My Project

We could really use some lamps to light up the classroom. Our overhead lights are functional, but they can be really harsh first thing in the morning. We would like to be able to ease into the day with lights that are easier on the eyes and provide a more comfortable learning environment.

These lamps would really improve our learning space, especially in the winter when it is dark in the morning.

Please consider donating to our lamp project so the kids can have access to different lighting options in the classroom.
