    Sorry for the long overdue note. My daughter was stricken with brain cancer and I was out for a trimester. I want to thank you from my heart for the bookshelf. The students have used it so much. We were using old shelves with plastic bins on the bottom.

    I have come to learn a lot and appreciate the kindness of strangers. This book shelf is much more than just a bookshelf, it is a symbol of a community coming together to make a change for a child at a time. We at Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy thank you for your time, love and support always.”
