Please Help Us! We Need a Carpet to Read On!

My students need carpets for the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Greene's classroom raised $365

My Students

Hey, do you remember the first time you and a friend sat down to read a book on a cozy carpet?

I teach Pre-kindergarten to eighteen wonderful children in the New York City Area.

These children have smiles that can light up a room. I have worked at my school for the past five years. It is my second home. The only thing my school is missing are the supplies we need for our children.

My Project

My children need a few carpets. We only have one carpet left in the classroom and it is old, dirty and ripped. The children sit on the floor when they want to play in the block area, play in the kitchen or read a book. It is so uncomfortable and unfair that they have to sit on a hard and dirty floor.

You will make it possible for the children to sit in a comfortable and clean environment.

They will be able to sit in small groups and read to one another. Thank you for taking the time to read my proposal.
