Subject: The May Book Project Launched to Celebrate AAPI Heritage Month
Date: May 17th 2022

FYI,

In celebration of Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, The Very Asian Foundation, in partnership with We Need Diverse Books, launches The May Book Project to help schools and libraries build and maintain robust Asian American youth literature collections.

The Very Asian Foundation is raising national awareness of the need to create inclusive libraries, give readers access to up-to-date Asian American literature, and provide funding for donating books to libraries.
