Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help fill our 2nd-grade classroom with the magic of books! Your donation of new or gently used books will inspire young minds, foster a love of reading, and create a library that sparks curiosity and imagination.

Every book you give is a doorway to adventure, learning, and growth!

Help Bring the Joy of Reading to Our Classroom!

Imagine the excitement of a child discovering their new favorite book—one that sparks their imagination, strengthens their reading skills, and opens their world to endless possibilities. That’s the power of a great classroom library, and you can help make it happen!

Why Your Donation Matters:

Books strengthen literacy skills and build confidence in young readers. Diverse stories help students see themselves in books and learn about others. Access to engaging books fosters curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.

My 2nd graders are bright, eager learners, but many don’t have access to a variety of books at home. Your generosity can change that!

Every book you give is a gift of knowledge, adventure, and opportunity. Let’s build a classroom library that inspires!

Thank you for making a difference, one book at a time!

Ms. Santiago will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 13.
