Our Second Project
Desk Project
December 2016 - One of our early projects was to raise funds to provide student chairs and desks for the school. The children had to sit on rugs on the floors as there was no student furniture. During winter months the floor is cold. The goal was to raise $1560 for a classroom of desk and chairs for the children. Contributions totaled $2753.49 which allowed us to provide not just the student chairs and desks but additional furniture and cabinets needed for teachers and educational materials.
BUILDING THE FURNITURE - After the desks and chairs arrived the children were involved in painting their own furniture so they could develop a feeling of ownership and pride.
WORKING AT DESKS - No more sitting on cold cement! The students now can have a nice place to learn and work!
