Building a Library to Inspire Lifelong Readers

Help me give my students a classroom library that builds strong positive reading habits.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Flores's classroom raised $780

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are curious, enthusiastic learners who thrive when given the opportunity to explore books that reflect their interests, identities, and imaginations. However, our classroom library is in need of a refresh to truly ignite their passion for reading.

I’m asking for a diverse selection of high-interest books that will cater to all reading levels and tastes, a couch and a rug to create an inviting classroom library.

These books will help my students see themselves in what they read, discover new perspectives. The couch and rug will create an inviting classroom library, which in turn will help them build strong reading habits and a positive relationship with reading.

With your support, our classroom can become a place where every student feels excited to pick up a book. Your donation will help stock our shelves with stories that spark curiosity, develop empathy, and build confidence. Together, we can turn reluctant readers into lifelong book lovers.

Thank you for helping us grow our classroom library and the minds and hearts of future readers.
