Because of your generosity, we have run into a wonderful problem: Leadership Public Schools – Richmond now has more books than its library can contain. Currently, the school’s library is in – no joke – a converted bathroom. Luckily, the school will be moving to a new campus outfitted with a library in the fall of 2012. In the interim, the Leadership Public Schools - Richmond needs your help accommodating all of the new books that are flowing in.
We are asking for donations to help the school rent a portable library building. We want to rent a California code-compliant structure that can serve as a library for $5,696.03. If you’re curious about that number, please see the cost breakdown below.
Your donation through PayPal will go directly into a special fund set up by Leadership Public Schools to support this critical project. Every dollar that you contribute will go directly towards the cost of bringing this library structure to campus. All of us at the Richmond Book Drive, the students and staff of LPS-Richmond, and the Richmond community want to thank you for your support of this cause. We are humbled by any help that you can provide.
