My Project

Our students are highly diverse learners whom in spite of adversity and challenges are brilliant, funny, inspiring, and worthy of wonderful things. I'd love to offer students bookmarks when they check out books. I've often made my own, received a few free ones from vendors or authors, but I can't keep enough on hand.

Help me give students a chance to pick out a bookmark whenever they check out a book.

It's such a small thing, but watching a teenager get excited about a bookmark is heartwarming. Life is complicated, this is simple, please help me make them smile.
