My Project
Donating graphic novels about mental health and books that highlight underrepresented communities and cultures to an ESL classroom can have a profound impact on students’ learning and personal growth. Graphic novels provide visual context that helps language learners grasp complex ideas, making difficult topics like mental health more accessible and relatable. Meanwhile, books that showcase diverse cultures and perspectives foster inclusivity, helping students see themselves represented while broadening their understanding of the world.
For many ESL learners, these stories serve as both a mirror and a window—validating their experiences while introducing them to new ones.
By contributing these resources, donors support language development, cultural awareness, and emotional well-being, creating a richer, more supportive learning environment.
