My Project

This project is aimed at ensuring every student has access to a wide variety of free books that reflect different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. In today's diverse world, it is essential for students to see themselves represented in the stories they read while also being exposed to perspectives to broaden their understanding of others.

This project will not only foster a love of reading but also promote empathy, critical thinking, and cultural awareness among our students.

By creating a selection of free diverse books to our students, it will inspire them to be confident, curious, and open minded individuals, equipped to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.
