- I will work to ensure that everyone who visits my Little Free Library feels welcome;
For all signers
- I believe that everyone should be able to see themselves in the pages of a book;
- I commit to talking to my friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors about ways we can collaborate to increase equity and inclusion in our community;
- I will use my passion for celebrating diversity to help others embrace diversity and fight for equity in their lives;
