Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies. ~Author Unknown Help our students soar!

Computer teacher in a high poverty inner city school in North Carolina would love to see student work displayed with new working classroom computers.

Our school has over 85% of families at poverty level. We continually deal with slow, obsolete equipment, and our printers are breaking down and overheating. The students are loving and smile every day, and seem unaware of their poverty. The students excel in our environment and we want to make sure they keep that joy of learning.

My Project

Your help will enable students to print their projects in order to show pride in their achievements. They can put their printed projects on their fridge, paragraphs with clip art, comics, poems, test scores from online assessments, and so much more. Knowing they can access new equipment will be powerful for them....your help would be so appreciated!

Your donations will ensure the printers are used for many years by many students.

Please show these students they are important, just as important as their projects! We need people like you that are determined to make changes.
