Raise interest in reading for pleasure by providing a modern library exciting and attractive books
by Rabbi Spitzer in Salford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom
1] Increase the size of the library to include a quiet reading area and bring in authors to give girls opportunities to expand their our literacy horizons in a non school (attractive and exciting) setting.
2] Run Weekly traditional Jewish Storytelling events to interconnect generations.
Money raised will be used to outfit a library by providing an attractive setting with 100's books to lend out that appeal to girls of the community. We will especially purchase books and resources on mental health.
The library will reduce isolation, anxiety, and stress. Keep them socially active and connected to the wider community. The new books especially Mental Health material are essential for self-esteem and aspirations.
The educational benefits of having a library include:
Having a positive impact on attitude, well-being, academic outcomes, and improved literacy.
