My thesis project is a social impact project focused on underprivileged, Spanish speaking, elementary school students. The project is called Breakfast Book Club and has, as of December 2016, received a $2,000 grant from the Clinton Global Initiative through Appalachian State. Breakfast Book Club is a book club focused on students in the Hardin Park Elementary school district, specifically the Bradford Park area. The purpose of this thesis project was to reach out to underprivileged in the community with resources (free books), homework help, actual language practice, and relationships outside the home (with volunteers). Herein lies the weekly reflections, including goals, improvements, and adaptations that marked the process of running the book club.
