Book List Companion for Project Heart

Our Book List for Project Heart has been intentionally curated to include books for all ages! These recommendations give students, teachers and parents additional resources for exploring what philanthropy looks and feels like. From picture books for the younger kiddos and chapter books for middle and high school aged students to PD for adults, our Book List for Project Heart has reading resources for everyone!

Each book listed is accompanied by a brief summary and thematic connection points tied to the 3Ts framework, helping teachers spark rich post-reading conversations about empathy, community, and action. Whether you're beginning a new giving unit or wrapping one up, there's a story in here that will deepen the discussion and stay with students long after the last page.

Do you know a book that would be great to add to this list? Let us know!
