My Project

Students thrive when social connections are strong, enthusiastic, and nurturing. This project begins with pure air filters proven to clean the air. A great way to start any day is in a healthy and comfortable place, especially for those who suffer from allergies, asthma, or anxiety. The district already provided the air purifier; your donation will provide the air filters.

Your contribution provides a visually soothing clean well-lit space that supports our campus green space initiatives.

The learning space is filled with soothing succulents and scents that are welcoming to young minds.

In addition, students communication skills flourish by building positive relationships through cooperative games like Jenga and more.

Students care more when they are cared for. Thank you in advance for your generous contribution.
