Help me give my students more than books. We need things they are interested in learning. We need ukeleles, air fryers, and a portable suitcase record player.

My Project
Students today have many needs and wants. Sometimes it's easier to borrow something than it is to buy it.
The library of things helps students learn new skills and hobbies that they can enjoy the rest of their lives.
Learning how to knit can provided hours of entertainment, therapy and produce beautiful items to keep, give or sell. Cooking with an air fryer can be a great way to eat healthy when you don't have a lot of time. These tools, a Bluetooth suitcase recorder and ukuleles, help students learn life skills that they can also share with others.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
