My Project
Our library has very few nonfiction books and outdated ones. This middle school is very big and many students are interested in nonfiction books but I have to turn them away since the collection is sparse.
The students would use these books for research, book clubs, and personal reading at home.
These books will help students become life long readers and learners and gain literacy skills.
This donation would greatly add to the collection! The students would love these books. The teachers often ask for certain books for their students and some of these titles are on my list.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
