My Project

Help me give my students the opportunity to not only receive a gift for Christmas , but also a book they can treasure for a long, long time. Our school is a Title 1 school and many of my student's families do not have a extra resources for things like books at home. I would love more than anything to provide them with reading materials they are familiar with from class! The excitement on their faces over a book is worth more than words can describe. Please help me provide them with this opportunity.
