My Project

Our special education students have discovered a passion for reading, and now we're aiming to take their enthusiasm to the next level with Walter Dean Myers' "The Game." This project isn't just about books—it's about creating a tangible connection between our students' love for sports and their growing appetite for literature.

By donating, you'll help make reading come alive for these exceptional learners.

Each book becomes more than words on a page; it's a bridge to relatability and engagement. Our students will have the opportunity to hold in their hands a story that speaks to their interests, fostering a deeper connection with literature.

Your support will provide these special education students with a unique learning tool that combines their enthusiasm for sports with the joy of reading. It's not just about improving literacy; it's about igniting imaginations, building confidence, and opening new worlds of possibility.

Help us turn the page on traditional learning and score a touchdown for literacy!
