Help me give my students access to a joyful and engaging classroom library filled with funny, heartwarming, and thought-provoking books that will spark their love of reading and support their emotional growth, literacy development, and curiosity.

My Project
My students are enthusiastic, developing readers who light up when they discover a story that makes them laugh, think, or feel seen. This project will fill our classroom library with engaging, high-interest books like The Pigeon Collection, The Food Group series, and Wayside School. These stories promote literacy skills, imagination, and important social-emotional lessons. Many of my students don’t have access to books at home, so having a diverse, well-loved classroom library is essential. Your support will help create a reading space where all students feel excited, confident, and inspired to grow.
More than half of students from low‑income households
