Nonprofit organization dedicated to developing educational opportunities for underserviced children and adults. Launching “Love to Read” 2018/19 School Year
In honor of #LatinxHeritageMonth, we set out to find a fun, energetic children's book that would expose students to aspects of Latinx culture and Spanish words. For our second-grade students, "Niño Wrestles the World" by Yuyi Morales was the perfect match. #sparkchange#iowa
on 📚 on 📚!
We can not wait to see the smiles on the faces of the second-grade students who get to take part in our Love to Read event. Each second-grade student will get to select three books to add to their home library! #desmoinesiowa#iowa#books#CHILDRENSBOOK
2/2We look forward to helping each of them expand their home libraries. We hope they enjoy our selection of titles, starting with our October book of the month, "Niño Wrestles the World" #desmoines#iowa#dmps#books#Nonprofits#sparkchange#change
Just creating moments for students to enjoy books! Thanks to all of the support of community members and sponsors 80 plus 1st grade students got $25 each to buy books from our fair. #desmoinesiowa#bookish#sparkchange
#SparkFoundation is donating 70 books to students and teachers at schools in the #DesMoines Metro! And we are just getting started. No kid should go without books due to economics and teachers shouldn’t have to spend their hard earned money at every turn! #DesMoines#iowa#DMPS
At SPARK we are looking to make sure every student attending Des Moines Public School System has the same chance to succeed regardless of income, school boundaries and home life.
