Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
My students are smart, kind, and eager to learn. We are a small rural community with limited access to books, to say these children are excited when I receive new books is definitely an understatement. They LOVE to tell me every detail about what they are reading. I am amazed every day by their beautiful minds.
My Project
These new books would be such an amazing addition to our small school Library. Due to the small size of our school, I do not have a budget to use each year for new books, so we must find new and exciting ways to grow our Library. Our students would be so grateful for this new material as they are some of the most excited and eager readers I have ever seen.
Our students deserve to have NEW and Up-to-Date reading materials to expand their ever growing minds.
Our Pre K through 12 school has approximately 150 students total. We are located in a rural community with very few opportunities to expand our library. Please help us give these children what they deserve....the very BEST!
More than half of students from low‑income households
