New Rug

My Project

Hi, I’m a Pre-K teacher in a vibrant classroom full of curious, energetic learners. Each day, we gather on the carpet to read, share, learn, and connect. Unfortunately, our classroom carpet has seen better days—it’s worn, stained, and no longer provides the clean, comfortable space my students deserve.

A new carpet would make a huge difference.

It would provide a soft, inviting place for circle time, small group activities, and moments of mindfulness. Most importantly, it would give my students a sense of pride in their classroom—a space that feels clean, cared for, and special.

Your support would mean the world to us. Thank you for helping me create a warm, welcoming learning environment where my students can thrive.
