My Project

Hi Donors,

I am a pre-k teacher with cerebral palsy.

Help me to create a nurturing, loving classroom environment where each child feels accepted and loved. Multicultural books are important for preschoolers because they foster empathy, understanding, and appreciation for diverse cultures and experiences. By providing these books for our classroom library and story times, you will be helping children to develop into inclusive and compassionate individuals. It is my sincere hope and prayer to build positive self-esteem and reduce prejudice by having these books to reflect my children's own identities and expose them to a broader worldview.

Mrs. Brown Park Heights Academy 62 Grades PreK-2
