    Funded Mar 25, 2025

    Thank you so much for your support towards this project and towards my readers. I really appreciate it so much.

    These items are much needed items to help keep the library a fabulous place. These basic items are so important and run out so quickly in such a busy library space. These items will help keep the environment clean, healthy, and give those daily used items stocked in the library space.

    Thank you for supporting educators and education. We appreciate the support so much and these projects wouldn't be possible without the support of people like you.

  • Pick Me Up in the School Library!

    Funded Mar 11, 2025

    I want to thank you for your support towards this project! This is one of my favorite things I do in the library space because I love to see how something so simple, can lift so many students up.

    Something as simple as a piece of candy, gum, a mint, can turn someone's day around.

    I love keeping a little candy basket out by our check out station and letting the kids have that joyful moment with their little treat.

    I am so appreciative for your support towards this project because we do go through lots of supplied with the candy basket and I really appreciate the support for the restock that we really needed.

    I want to thank you for your help, it means so much to me and my students. We appreciate you so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Lester
