I teach in a high need middle school where we have a great number of young men who lose all interest in learning and, often, stop coming to school.

If we could obtain these graphic novels, we could keep some of our young men engaged and in school. There is nothing more upsetting than seeing a young man sleep his future away in class.

These graphic novels are too expensive for the school to purchase. However, with these books, young men are engaged and continue to come to school.

Please help us. With the right books, we could bring students back and keep them in school. Your donation could change a young man's life!
