<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cinco Puntos Press is launching \u201cShelter In Books,\u201d a classroom sponsorship program. They will be taking book-set requests from teachers and matching them with donors looking to help educators and students. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Cinco is offering books for these donations at a discount of 50%. You can find open requests for sponsorships at: <\/span><\/span>https:\/\/cincopuntos.com\/shelter-in-books\/<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/strong>. Teachers who\u2019d like to enter their requests can do so here: <\/span><\/span>https:\/\/forms.gle\/3rNLFYPhY3uhETdX9<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/strong>. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The swift rise of COVID-19 cases, and the resulting school shutdowns and shelter-in-place orders, have left teachers in the difficult position of having to continue their lessons without any of the materials from their physical classrooms. Those who sponsor a class book set can help teachers provide an educational resource that will give students a rest from screen time, as well as a world they can engage in during these tense times. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This program was inspired by emails the press has recently received from people offering donations to help Cinco Puntos during this turbulent period. They have likewise received requests for books from teachers with very limited budgets, teachers who would spend from their own money to provide materials for their students. So, the press would like to match donors with these teachers. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Reading is an essential skill and Cinco doesn\u2019t want students losing their, and their teachers\u2019, hard-earned progress from lack of access to books. The press hopes that \u201cShelter In Books\u201d can help them keep up their great work and foster their love of reading. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
