At the Kindle Classroom Project, we believe that every single young person deserves access to books they want to read.
The way this happens is pretty easy:
- Wonderful people from across the country donate their used Kindles,
- KCP volunteers get the Kindles ready for students to use,
- Students get to keep their Kindle 24 hours a day and get to choose books they want to read.
The third part is probably my favorite. Whenever I’ve given a Kindle to a young person, they don’t immediately believe that the library is limitless. They think that perhaps the Kindles include only a few books, or only those books that adults choose.
No matter how many times I tell them, some students have to see it to believe it.
Once they make their first book request, they’re totally hooked.
If you would like to donate your used Kindle, please do! Here’s how. Thank you!
