Help me give my students access to Revolutionary War stories to support learning history and building empathy.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Harris's classroom raised $365

My Project
Help our school build a richer understanding of the Revolutionary War with small group sets of historical fiction books. Reading in small groups fosters engagement and support, allowing students to delve into vivid stories of the past together.
These books will enable them to explore the experiences of individuals from that era, promoting empathy and a deeper comprehension of history.
By connecting with characters and their struggles, students will gain a more nuanced view of the Revolutionary War, enhancing their overall historical knowledge and emotional insight. Your donation will make a significant impact on their learning journey.
More than half of 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
