Dr. Murillo Donates Classroom Set

Unite to Make It Rain Libros in Book Deserts

Dr. Laura Murillo, President and CEO of the Houston Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Donates $1,000 for a classroom set of Hecho En Tejas: The Anthology of Texas Mexican Literature, edited by Dagoberto Gilb. The books are given directly to Profe Ron, a Houston high school teacher, who may use the books as needed. This ranges from a class on Mexican American Literature to rewarding students who thrive in the course or writing. Additionally, Nuestra Palabra will provide class room visits of writers and poets, including a chance for Profe Ron and his students to meet noted writers Dagoberto Gilb when he returns to Houston as part of NP's Global Reading Series. Let us know if you know of other teachers, librarians, or community organizers who need book assistance. Let's make it rain libros in book deserts.
