A Night to Remember

Help me give my students a great family night event with some snacks.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Barrera's classroom raised $513

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

Students at our school work very hard throughout the whole school year. This is why they deserve events that help them relax and stay motivated to continue working hard to keep their grades up.

I plan to create a movie night to share with friends and family.

And what is better than to have the school provide them with a safe place to see an entertaining movie accompanied with some yummy snacks? I'm hoping that your donation can help accomplish this event for our students. So that we can provide them with an unforgettable night for them to remember for the rest of their high school years and hopefully the rest of their lives. Of course, we also need wipes to have everything we touch clean. This to keep us from getting sick and to prevent us from spreading germs and getting other sick. The less anyone gets sick the better probability of attending school daily. Thank you very much in advance!
