FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Spain's classroom raised $653

My Project
I’m reaching out to share an exciting opportunity to support literacy and foster a love of reading in our upper elementary classroom. Reading plays a critical role in academic success and lifelong learning. My students have a variety of reading levels and diverse reading interests. To help my students grow as readers and thinkers, I am working to expand and diversify our classroom library. I aim to provide engaging, age-appropriate books that reflect a range of genres, cultures, experiences, and reading levels—so that every child can see themselves in a book and also learn about others.
With your help, I hope to raise funds or receive donations of new books to enrich our reading environment.
Your contribution will go directly toward purchasing high-interest fiction and nonfiction titles tailored to upper elementary students, helping me create a classroom where all children feel inspired to read.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
