My Project

My students are amazing young learners, and they deserve to have seats that will help them focus and be safe. Many of their chairs are discolored from aging, and what once were silver legs on their chairs are now black. Some of their seats are cracked and many are uneven and wobbly. Their seats are different sizes because when one breaks, I need to replace it with what is available which isn't always the best fit for the size of my students.

My students are resilient and don't often complain because they're thankful for what they have, but I know that they deserve better physical comfort while at school.

My goal for this project is to allow every student to have a seat that fits them and is stable and safe. I'd greatly appreciate your help and support in making this happen!
