Your gift has made a meaningful and lasting impact on both my students and me, transforming the way we organize, access, and engage with our learning materials.\r\n\r\nBefore receiving the bookshelves, many of our resources—books, binders, hands-on materials, and student projects—were stored in limited space, often stacked or tucked away. This made it difficult for students to independently access what they needed and limited our ability to maintain an organized learning environment.
