My Project
Scholars in this building come from culturally diverse backgrounds and face economic and cultural biases. Access to novels is crucial for these young learners, as engaging stories resonate with their reading interests and open up "different worlds" for exploration.
Through intricate plots and complex characters, scholars will be able to engage their imagination and critical thinking, allowing them to draw connections between fictional and real-life scenarios.
Many families in this area continue to experience significant hardships, which affects these intelligent, caring, and courageous young individuals who possess the potential to positively impact our world. Please help support their love for reading!
