Goal:

Our goal is to host a fundraiser which will finance the enhancement of the experience of children and families by updating our classrooms with upgraded furnishings.

Children learn best in an environment that is set up for their success. A successful learning environment should be safe, age appropriate, and engaging. Many of our current furnishings need to be replaced and upgraded in order for us to ensure a safe and successful learning environment for all children.
