FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gibbons's classroom raised $846

My Project
Our classroom is filled with young learners who are full of curiosity and enthusiasm for discovering new things every day. To foster their growth and support their learning needs, we need two crucial items: a storage shelf and a bookshelf.
Our current classroom setup lacks sufficient storage space, making it a challenge to keep materials organized and easily accessible.
By adding a storage shelf, we will be able to neatly store and categorize educational supplies, such as art materials, manipulatives, and learning games. This organization will not only streamline our classroom but also allow the children to independently access and return materials, promoting responsibility and self-directed learning.
In addition to the storage shelf, a dedicated bookshelf will be invaluable for nurturing our students’ love of reading. With a well-organized bookshelf, we can create a cozy and inviting reading nook where students can freely explore books at their own pace. This will encourage a culture of reading and help develop early literacy skills, which are foundational for their academic success.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
