API Book Drive
In May 2022, we partnered with the Greater Nashville Chinese Association and the Nashville Chinese School to bring Asian and Pacific Islander authored and illustrated books to students in Nashville and Williamson County. Together, we collected over 150 books and raised over $14,000 for school librarians to purchase API books. Check back in April for our 2023 Book Drive!
