"Who loves children’s books more than I do, well it’s Lisa. She shares her love of books and reading with my students at the Beethoven Elementary School. It’s her kindness that shines through and her willingness to want all children to love reading. Lisa brought books for our students, well over 1,000 books. I’ll never forget the smiles and excitement of the students choosing two books to take home. Our Kindness Projects were such a success with all the support we received from Storytime Crafts."

The William F. Stanley Elementary School is a pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade school. Our learning community is comprised of approximately 450 students and we are an ethnically, racially, socio-economically and learning diverse school. The majority of the students are Hispanic and/or first generation Americans who come from homes where a language other than English is spoken, and we are also home to a large program that services students with Autism.
"Thanks to Lisa Vergara and Storytime Crafts, the students at our school were able to go home with two books as we celebrated Kindness Week. It was so amazing to see the smiles and joy on the faces of our students! Lisa’s work to promote literacy is a great example of kindness."
