Building a Library with Love for Lifelong Readers

Help me give my students a library! We’re studying Greek mythology and Native American history. Your donation gives students meaningful books, sparks curiosity, and supports a lifelong love of reading. Thank you!

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

I’m creating a classroom library full of books that reflect what we’re learning in ELA, like Greek mythology and Native American history, so students can make deeper connections and fall in love with reading. A strong library gives every student the chance to see themselves in stories, explore new worlds, and grow as readers.

Your donation will help build a warm, inspiring space where students are excited to read, think, and dream.

Every book you help us add is a step toward lifelong learning, and it all starts with love.
