HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. — OFM, a leading office and school furniture manufacturer, distributor, and wholesaler, announced today it is kicking off a brand new back-to-school giveaway aimed at teachers and other educational staffers. The winner will receive 20 colorful Rico Student Stack Chairs to start the 2014/2015 academic year off with a new classroom.

“It’s the middle of summer and for a lot of teachers and other educational faculty that means time to start thinking about seating arrangements for the new school year,” added Blake Zalcberg, chief executive officer of OFM. “We think 20 new Rico chairs will help create a dream classroom that is bright, fun, and functional.”

Contestants can enter to win the “Sit Down and Learn Giveaway” simply by liking OFM's Facebook page and sending an email to [email protected] with "learn” in the subject line along with a one-word description of the chairs their students currently use, for instance dirty, old, broken, worn, uncomfortable, etc. The deadline to enter is 11:59 p.m. EST, August 15, 2014. The winner will be selected through a random drawing on August 18, 2014 and notified by email on that day.

    Learning environments have the power to shape not just what students know, but who they become. When a school is designed with genuine empathy—for the full range of ways students think, sense, and engage with the world—it becomes more than a building. It becomes a catalyst for growth, confidence, and belonging. That is the animating idea behind neurodiverse design, and it is one that is transforming how more architects and designers are thinking about school design.
