Hooray! This project is fully funded

I am the Librarian at a very large school. I hope to inspire young students to love reading by beautifying the library.

We are using the Library budget to bring in new books. We have redesigned the Library and opened space for a children’s section. With some help we can build the perfect environment for our young readers.

In building the perfect environment for our young readers we are looking to get a reading carpet. We have created the space and hope that with your donation we can bring many smiles on the faces of our children. The carpet will be used during story time every period of the day. The carpet will not only excite the students, myself, beautify the library, more importantly it will help the seating arrangements for students.

Your donation to our library can make a world of difference in the life of a young reader. We believe with providing the correct environment we can get our boys and girls to love reading for a lifetime. We hope that you will fund this project and join our hands in making a difference for the future of this nation.
