My Project
Imagine a school where every child not only learns how to read—but learns how to be kind, to lift others up, and to fill the buckets of those around them with joy and love.At our school, we’re on a mission to do just that.
We want to gift every single student in our school a copy of the beautiful and uplifting book "Have You Filled a Bucket Today?" This inspiring story teaches children that kindness is powerful, that their words matter, and that they have the ability to make someone else’s day just by being thoughtful, caring, and compassionate.
This isn’t just a book—it’s a message.
A message of empathy.
A message of love.
A message that every child deserves to carry with them.
With your help, we can make this dream a reality.
We are seeking donations to purchase a copy of this book for every student in our entire school so that no child is left out. Whether they’re just learning their ABCs or preparing for middle school, each student deserves to hold this message in their hands and in their hearts.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
