My Project

The materials I am requesting are new books for our elementary school library. These books are going to go directly into circulation where students grades Pre-K through 5th grade can begin to check them out to start reading.

By donating to this project, you are helping to put books in kids hands.

Our students are always requesting new books that they are interested in and we have not had them in the library. This will help to solve that. Thank you for helping us keep the excitement of reading going.
