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

Do you remember your when you took Algebra? You faced a landscape of challenging equations, abstract concepts, and demanding problem-solving. My students are on near the end of their journey. They have navigated a terrain with remarkable resilience and overcoming fear.

As the year draws to a close, I want to celebrate their hard-earned success and the incredible resilience they've demonstrated.

I aim to create a memorable end-of-year celebration where I recognize their achievements and provide a well-deserved moment of joy and reflection.

Your generous donation will help us provide each student with a certificate of achievement, acknowledging their perseverance, and a goodie bag filled with treats and small tokens of recognition. These tangible expressions include snacks, an EXTRA gum to remind them that a little EXTRA goes a long way, bubbles and motivational keychain. These items will demonstrate our sense of pride and support as we celebrate their accomplishments but also inspire them to continue facing future challenges with the same resilience and determination.

Your contribution will directly support these students as they reflect on their journey, celebrate their strengths, and prepare to embark on the next chapter of their academic lives. Please consider donating to help us make this a celebration they will cherish and remember for years to come.
