Imani Mumin Capstone

The focus of our capstone is to create a book house that we will put books on that will be open to the public for younger children who likes to read but doesn’t have a way of getting a book or affording one. The learning goal is to help create a way to help student is neighborhoods that we live in perform better as students. We feel like this project will help them to be on the right track when it comes to school. Studies show that student that live in low-income neighborhoods are less likely to graduate high school. No we cannot change the fact that the children around us in low-income neighborhoods but we can do something to help the graduation rate increase. We chose to do a book drive so that people can help us get books for kids to read to put in our book house. We also donated some of our own from books we had when we were younger. We will leave our book house open to the public so that kids can feel free to grab a book of their choice to read whenever that feel like it. Although this is just a senior project the idea doesn’t stop here because we will continue to put more books for our book house after we graduate to continue to help these kids. This project will not only help kids but touch base on their everyday lives and we proud to have create this project.
