Empowering 3rd Graders Through Books

Help me give my students books to get them excited to read.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Havran's classroom raised $196

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help me provide my students an opportunity to read Oregon Battle of the Books titles for 2024-25. I want everyone in my class to have the opportunity to read these books. Access to a wide selection of books will encourage independent reading, allowing students to explore their interests and develop at their own pace.

By donating books for 3rd graders, you will directly contribute to the academic and personal growth of our students, equipping them with the tools they need to succeed.

Your generosity will make a lasting impact on their lives, instilling a lifelong love for reading and learning. Thank you for considering this request and for your dedication to supporting our students' success.
