As part of our celebration of Black History Month in February 2021, we began a partnership with local area schools (BVSD: Boulder Valley School District) to help provide windows and mirrors for students through diversifying the bookshelves in Elementary school classrooms. Check out the video to hear from our partner at BVSD.
So far we have outfitted every classroom at Lafayette Elementary, Pioneer Elementary, and Fireside Elementary with diverse books.
Our hope is to contribute books to every elementary school in BVSD.
The 2023 BOOK DRIVE is benefiting
MESA ELEMENTARY in Boulder.
Our Book Drive for 2023 is completed! We are so grateful for everyone who contributed either funds or books. We are thrilled that Mesa Elementary has new books on their shelves in classrooms and their library.
We look forward to our book drive next year - please consider making a donation now!
