Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Help us launch our library's first book club and empower young readers! 2025 marks an exciting milestone for our library. The launch of our very first book club!
This initiative will introduce our students to the magic of shared reading experiences and foster a lifelong love of literacy.
I have curated a selection of books planned for the year, and I want to make this experience truly special. The button machine will allow students to create unique buttons for each book they read, collecting them in pin frames they will receive at the end of the year as a symbol of their accomplishment.
Your contribution will empower us to bring this exciting and impactful program to life.
