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

**Help Bring Diverse Books to Our High School Library!**

Our students deserve a library that reflects the world around them—one filled with diverse voices, perspectives, and stories.

We’re working to expand our collection with books that celebrate different cultures, identities, and experiences so every student can see themselves in the stories they read.

With your support, we can provide books by authors of color, LGBTQ+ voices, and stories that explore a variety of backgrounds and histories. These books will foster empathy, understanding, and a love of reading among our students.

Every donation brings us closer to a more inclusive and enriching library. Thank you for helping us put the right books in the hands of our readers!
