Join us in supporting Carthage's Big Red Book Fund. Help students in need get the best education possible at Carthage by helping them get the books they need for their classes.
Story
The Big Red Book Fund is a program designed to get textbooks into the hands of students who cannot afford them. These students can request to borrow the donated textbooks one semester at a time through the library. The more books we have available through the library, the more students we can help! Please consider donating any books you no longer need to the Big Red Book Fund as a way to give back to your peers.
It has been a pleasure working with you. Your care and commitment to students' learning and well-being is invaluable. Thanks for all you do. - a Big Red Book Fund participant
The inflation rate for textbooks is three times that of regular inflation. This means that year after year it becomes harder and harder for our students to afford their education. Since its start in 2018, the Big Red Book Fund has been able to give out 338 textbooks and help 71 students access those books for the year. Make your gift now to ensure that all Carthage students are able to get the most out of their education.
