My Project

I work in a title one school, where students are eager to come to school and learn. Being that these students already face many personal challenges of their own, I do not want them to have any preventable obstacles when walking into my classroom and I want to make things easy where I can.

This bookshelf will help my future scholars access books, with a clear view of the books spine and a fun basket, filled with some of their favorite titles, while also being able to easily reach a book of their choice.

I thank anyone who donates to this project, as it will help my students in ways they didn't even know they needed.
