My Project

Creating a warm, inviting reading space can spark a lifelong love of books. This grant will provide a cozy chair, soft rug, and engaging book-themed decor to transform a corner of our elementary school media center into a comfortable, welcoming reading nook.

Students will have a special space to relax with a good book, helping them associate reading with comfort and joy.

This environment will support independent reading, foster imagination, and encourage a deeper connection to literature for students of all reading levels.

Thank you for helping to create cozy spaces for our readers!
