My Project
Our school library is a vibrant hub of learning and imagination for almost 700 elementary students. Every day, our young readers explore stories that spark curiosity, build empathy, and develop essential literacy skills. But many of our well-loved picture books are now worn, outdated, or damaged from years of joyful use.
This project will allow us to refresh our collection with new, high-quality picture books that reflect diverse voices, current topics, and timeless stories.
From read-aloud favorites to beautifully illustrated tales that children can enjoy independently, these books will support early literacy and make reading a joyful, engaging experience.
With your support, we can ensure that every child—from kindergarten through fifth grade—has access to clean, inviting, and relevant books that help them fall in love with reading. A new book can mean a new adventure, and with 700 eager minds waiting, the impact of your generosity will be felt every single day.
Thank you for helping us turn the page toward a brighter reading future!
