Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Many of our high school students aren't able to read at even a 4th-grade level. With these projects, we are trying to create a classroom environment where students can have the opportunity to develop their reading skills by starting over with less demanding books and then improving their reading & comprehension skills toward current grade-level reading.

Our High School doesn't even have a library, and we would like to provide our low-income students with the means to level the playing field with more affluent schools.

We are also trying to reinforce the importance of books and reading in education and our daily lives through bookshelves filled with novels, reference materials, and self-help books.

We appreciate any donation that you are willing to provide to make these projects a reality.
