We are reaching out to you with an exciting opportunity to make a lasting impact on our students' education and love for reading. Our school library is a vital resource, fostering curiosity and a passion for learning. However, many of our books are outdated and worn, and we are in urgent need of new titles that will engage our students. By contributing to this fundraiser, you will help us acquire a fresh selection of books that reflect our students' interests and backgrounds, encouraging them to explore new horizons.
Every donation, no matter the size, will help us create a vibrant library that inspires young readers.
Together, we can ensure that every student has access to high-quality literature, sparking their imagination and supporting their academic growth. We believe that investing in our library is an investment in our future, and we hope you will join us in this mission. Thank you for your support in helping our students discover the joy of reading!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
