This teacher needs your help!

Mr. Bunn from Charlotte, NC is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

9th Graders Lost Without an Island!

My students need 35 copies of "The Lord of the Flies" to ensure that all students in my class can afford to learn from and enjoy this classic novel.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bunn's classroom raised $455

This project is fully funded

I work at a Math and Science Magnet High School that is a focus school and serves several high need communities in our city. I currently work with 60 students and several cannot afford to buy copies of novels that are required by the schools curriculum. Parents always buy supplies for their younger students, but the high school students often get forgotten.

The novels in this school are in short supply and very badly used. Several students have to share novels because we don't have enough to go around. A few parents will purchase the books, but we can't require them to do so.

By supplying a class set of novels you will ensure that this generation of students will learn the importance of things like: leadership, civilization, and self actualization, just to name a few.

Your donation will make it possible for my low income students to receive the same opportunities as their more affluent counterparts. The books will also be used for future generations. This enables your donation to keep on giving. Please consider donating to this project and helping a few teenagers enjoy some classical literature.
