Help me give my students books so they believe in themselves and believe that they can read even through the struggle.

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 Students
My students are curious, brave, and inspire me every day. I am constantly learning from them, and the confidence that they build as time goes on. They are comfortable with who they are and also aspire to push themselves in ways that go beyond limitations. They are sweet, silly, curious, and are developing into aspirational leaders that want the best for themselves and others.
It is hard to consider what I do as a job because it is truly a part of who I am.
When told "those kids are lucky to have you," I think to myself "I am the lucky one."
My Project
My students love spending time in the library picking a book to read and finding a comfy spot to just be absorbed by the book. However, many of my students struggle with reading and comprehension and need support.
With your help, I can provide students with books that they can understand and love and not feel as though reading is a hassle.
I want my students to be confident in their reading and want to continue to spend time reading. Even though they struggle to read, by providing books at their level they can pick a book that they can connect to more.
