Book Bins Are an Organized Place for Books

Help me give my students a classroom library with new bins and storage for students.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. T's's classroom raised $599

This project is fully funded

My Project

One of the goals for my fifth grade class is to foster a love of reading among students. To achieve this, I need to provide them with a variety of books that match their interests and reading levels. However, our current library shelves are overcrowded and disorganized, making it hard for students to find and enjoy the books they want. That is why we are asking for your support to purchase new book bins for our library.

These book bins will allow us to sort and display the books by genre, topic, and level, creating a fun and exciting place for students to read.

With your help, we can make our library more inviting and accessible for our fifth graders, and inspire them to become lifelong readers.
