My Project

My students love reading and are always looking for a great story to spark their imagination. I would like them to be able to see the books and all their amazing reading choices, so they can really choose something that jumps out at them. Right now, part of the collection is housed in baskets due to the shelving being damaged and unable to be replaced. This leads to beautiful books getting damaged and unread.

To truly support a culture of reading, I want to show students that books are appreciated, displayed properly, and cared for to share with others.

Please consider donating to this project to get the students excited about books and open new worlds for them.
