Our Libraries - BestBridgeToHeart

Bunker Hill Community Library

One of our main goals is to help underprivileged kids by building and expanding libraries in order to promote literacy and an equal access to education and opportunity. To accomplish this goal, we constructed our first-ever library at the Bunker Hill Community, where we continue to:
• Set up, expand, and refurbish libraries
• Build home libraries
• Donate books
• Host summer events, including but not limited to reading, spelling, speed math, and science mini-competitions
• Volunteer every Friday to read and interact with children
• Host special events on holidays such as throwing a Halloween's Party

Olga Elementary Library

In December 2022, BestBridgeToHeart donated $1000 to the library of Olga Leonard Elementary school. In the school year of 2023-2024, BestBridgeToHeart will set up BBTH scholarship for the school students. BestBridgeTo Heart hopes this scholarship program will provide a small but important difference in the lives of children as they continue their education and peruse their dreams.

Dance Studio Libraries

Through our Dance Studio Libraries initiative, BestBridgeToHeart promotes literacy by placing small libraries in local dance studios, including Mitsi Dancing School, Etoile Dance Academy, Master Upper Level, and Rachel Ballet Academy. Stocked with a diverse collection of picture books and chapter books, these libraries are located in studio waiting areas where young dancers can read before class, during breaks, or while waiting for pickup.

By making books easily accessible in familiar environments, we encourage children to spend more time reading and less time on screens, helping foster curiosity, imagination, and a lifelong love of learning. To ensure the libraries remain engaging and well-stocked, our volunteers regularly maintain each location and refresh the book selections on a monthly basis.

Through this initiative, BestBridgeToHeart is creating meaningful educational opportunities in unexpected places—one page, one reader, and one library at a time.

Denton Community Library

The Denton Community Mini Library Program is dedicated to promoting literacy and expanding access to books for children in Denton, Texas.

Through partnerships with local communities, the program establishes neighborhood libraries that provide children and families with free access to a variety of reading materials, including STEM and general-interest books. The program also encourages regular reading through age-appropriate activities and incentives.

Our mission is to inspire curiosity, foster a love of reading, and help children discover new opportunities through learning.

As the program grows, we hope to expand to additional communities and make books more accessible to children throughout the Denton area.

HuaXia Library

In September 2019, BestBridgeToHeart built a brand new library for HuaXia Chinese School - Sugar Land Campus.

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, our organization has transitioned to online summer classes to further support the education of HuaXia School's children.

E-Library

Partnering with the Fort Bend Cares Center, BestBridgeToHeart donated $3,000 to support 100 students to be able to install the Learning Upgrade® application, which allows students to learn critical subjects such as English and Mathematics anywhere they go. The Learning Upgrade® app has been shown to provide breakthrough growth by offering free access to 900+ lessons, giving 21 courses from kinder to adult, and providing personalized assessment reports and help for special needs. In this way, students will be able to learn at their own pace and develop the skills to pursue higher education. BestBridgeToHeart volunteers helped with installing and setting-up the app.
