Wish Delivered: Laptop Charging Tower

This wishlist will purchase a Laptop charging tower for teacher Daniel Young. He says “ With our students using their laptops every class period, they are constantly needed to charge them. With 36+ kids in a single class, it's impossible for every student to sit by an outlet. This will allow me to place a charging station in the center of the room, giving outlet access to every student in the room, wherever they sit. Allowing for less distractions of students moving all around, and more time to focus on their work.”
