My Project

My students are bright, hardworking, and eager to grow their communication skills. I love seeing their confidence build as they progress in speech therapy, and I want to create an environment that supports their success in every way possible.

The lamps I am requesting will provide alternative lighting to make our speech therapy space more comfortable and inviting.

Many students struggle with harsh overhead lighting, which can be overstimulating or distracting. By using softer, adjustable lighting, I can create a calming atmosphere that helps students focus, feel at ease, and fully engage in their sessions.

My goal for this project is to enhance the learning environment so that my students feel safe, supported, and motivated to communicate. Each of my students is unique, and I want to ensure that our space meets their sensory and learning needs. With your support, we can brighten their speech therapy experience—one lamp at a time!
