My Nonprofit Reviews

A friend who works at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian put out a call on Facebook to people who live or work on Native land to apply for a Little Free Library. I was fortunate to win one. I work on the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation at the public high school and my community service based club, the California Scholarship Federation, installed the Little Free Library by the US Post Office. We are a rural mountain community and most everyone gets their mail there. It has been a wonderful success! For a year now, I have kept the books flowing; my goal is to raise literacy and thus combat poverty. Now that we are in the middle of a pandemic, books have become even more important. Last week, I was able to fill it with young adult books for our students to read. I appreciate this organization more than words can say; it has been a true beacon of hope for our community.
