Stretch O' Clock

Help me give my students the tools they need to reduce muscle tension, and improve circulation when they are out of their wheelchairs.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alvarado's classroom raised $296

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The items from this project will help my students have the proper support to stretch and relax their muscles while out of their wheelchairs. Due to lack of supplies I am not able to get all my students out of their wheelchairs. The pillows from this project will provide the appropriate neck, lumbar, and leg support improving blood circulation, posture, and digestion.

Your contributions to this project will greatly impacts my students physical health and function.

Maintaining my students strength and mobility is a crucial part of their school day because it boosts self -esteem, improves mental health and quality of life.
