Help me give my students a school library that has more books and graphic novels for all of our school's students.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Salvail's classroom raised $1,494
This project is fully funded
My Project
Every school should have a well stocked and culturally relevant library. These books can also consist of graphic novels that are the fastest growing form of children developing a love of reading. Book sets that are relevant and not from 10 plus years ago is what students want to read the most.
School libraries are underfunded around the country, but ours is especially in need of books of cultural and modern relevance that can satisfy the demand of an ever growing student population.
Our librarian has worked tirelessly to add as many new books as possible each year. With current funding levels, this has been a VERY slow process.
I want to give the whole population of our school lots of new books by helping our library get a new batch of great books for the students to read. Helping our school with this project is something I hope you the donor will appreciate.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
