My Project

As an educator committed to nurturing empathy, curiosity, and critical thinking in my students, I am working to expand our classroom library with books that reflect the rich diversity of our world. My goal is to provide literature that not only captivates young readers but also educates them on real-world topics, highlights important historical moments, and features voices from a wide range of racial and cultural backgrounds. By doing so, I hope to create a learning environment where every student feels seen, heard, and inspired.

Your support will directly impact our students by giving them access to stories that foster understanding and build bridges across differences.

Books are powerful tools for growth, and with your help, I can offer my students stories that empower them to think critically, embrace diversity, and become compassionate citizens. Thank you for considering a gift that will help shape thoughtful and informed young minds.
