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 Project

The same story, year after year, while a classic, the truth is that across the country, classroom supplies run dry, and our classroom has no immunity to it.

Please help our classroom get the always-needed, long-standing supplies like crayons, colored pencils, glue sticks, and of course just like any other first-grade classroom, copy paper.

All of the supplies go directly to my students, who utilize and sometimes misplace these supplies (forgive them, they are only 6-7 years old.)

I promise every donation will not go unnoticed, some of my students will have knowledge and appreciation of your kindness, but rest assured, I will let the rest know the gift of humanity. Thank you all. God bless. MrD.
