My Project

I am seeking your support to help provide our middle school students with books that promote social justice and representation—resources that reflect the diverse voices, cultures, and histories of our world.

These books are essential in helping students understand equity, empathy, and inclusion.

By seeing themselves and others accurately represented in what they learn, students develop a stronger sense of identity and respect for different perspectives.

Your donation will directly support our efforts to create a more inclusive, informed, and empowering learning environment where every student feels seen, valued, and inspired to make a positive impact.

Thank you for considering this meaningful cause. Together, we can build a classroom—and a future—where equity and representation are at the heart of learning.
