Give To Read - Cornerstone Schools

 

There’s a popular meme that exclaims, “All my adult life, I’ve been chasing the thrill of the Scholastic Book Fair!” Do you remember that feeling? All those colorful, intriguing books displayed…and if you were fortunate to have money in your pocket, you could choose something, take it home, and get lost in the unfolding story.

At Cornerstone, we’ve witnessed some very different experiences with our students. Parents and guardians do their best, but are often unable to send funds for the book fair.

We know that children who have books at home, and have opportunities to choose their own books tend to be more successful readers. Our Give To Read program seeks to bring the thrill of the book fair to every student in our 6 schools.

Our goal is to raise $70,000. This will allow every student to choose 5 books: 4 to keep, and 1 to donate to their teacher to build up classroom libraries.

We have much work to do to reach the $70,000 goal. You can help.
