My students need a media cart to allow us to utilize technology, like a projector and a document camera, in the classroom safely!

My Students
My 30 students are inner city students who attend a public school where funding has been cut significantly. Their parents chose a public school because they do not have many options due to finances, which in turn does not provide the schools with a ton of support. My students love to learn through play and blended, cooperative learning. They love to learn through hands-on activities and be very active. I always try to create my lessons to meet their needs. My school can't always provide the materials needed for these engaging lessons.
My Project
We're asking for a new media cart so that we utilize the technology we have in the classroom to the fullest. Our current media cart is an old bookshelf in the corner. This project gives us a place to use our projector so that we can read together, dance with our friends, and learn from one another.
Technology is a great tool to have in the classroom, but unfortunately, our current media cart is old and out of date.
Our media cart has no plugs or outlets to hold plugs securely in place which makes me worried about the safety of my students. We need those outlets to use resources, like our projector and document camera.
Nothing seems more hazardous than wires and cords in the middle of the floor with 30 kindergarteners moving about. Our classroom should be a safe place to learn, not an obstacle course. This new media cart would allow me to use the technology my students need to learn, without worrying about their safety.
