Makeshift School Library

Help me give my students a variety of book choices for their reading-crazed brains!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Laurvick's classroom raised $1,487

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school currently has no library, leaving students without a dedicated space to explore books, grow as readers, or develop a love for literature. We’re hoping to change that by creating a makeshift library right in our classrooms.

Our students have been begging for book recommendations, and with the limited amount we have, we are stuck.

Our staff wants to encourage independent reading by providing engaging books that meet the needs and interests of all our students. Your support will help us to provide a wide range of titles that reflect our students’ experiences and spark their curiosity.

Every book added brings us closer to giving students access to stories, knowledge, and imagination that every learner deserves.
