  • Celebrating Black Culture

    Funded Feb 6, 2025

    Thank you so much for giving to this project. The kids at my school ABSOLUTELY loved these books! I unboxed the new books with a 5th grade class and they were so excited about each and every one of the titles and the books started getting checked out as soon as they hit the library shelves.

    The students at my school love seeing books with Black Characters and about Black Americans because they can relate more. The more they relate, the more they want to read so thank you for helping me build a reading culture with my students.

    These books will be checked out and enjoyed by students for years to come! Thanks again for making a true impact in our school library community!”

  • Ending Boredom With Board Games

    Funded Mar 14, 2025

    Thank you so much for giving to this project!

    As soon as the board games were delivered, we opened them up and started playing. The social skills that comes with playing board games is so essential to these kids. It has also helped stock the indoor recess options for rainy days, keeping our students off of technology based games, which increases communication, skill building, and life ready skills.

    We will continue to use these board games for years to come! Thanks again for helping to build our collection. Our students appreciate these games so much!”
