My Project

Elementary schools are special places where students get to step outside their homes and start to explore and learn alongside their peers. Having access to high quality books is a huge part of allowing students to learn and grow. In our school we have students who are bilingual learners and their families need access to those same high quality resources at home so that they can support their student's curiosity and learning.

Every child deserves the opportunity see themselves in books and to explore the world around them.

This project will provide families with a set of bilingual books so they can read together at home with their children. By giving them books to keep we can help foster a love of reading and build life long learners while supporting their specific needs.

Please join us in providing these resources to our families.
