My Project

Help liven up our middle school library with the addition of some new books, games, and supplies. Keeping current titles on the shelves keeps the students coming back for more books. Right now, some big attractions are Manga, mysteries, and graphic novels.

But libraries aren't just about books; they're about community.

Adding some new board games to our library and supplies to help keep the space well organized will make the library a place where students come, not just to find a book, but to connect with classmates.

Over 450 students visit the library each week. Their eyes light up when they see new books and board games on the shelves. Thank you in advance for helping to liven up our library!
