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

Our school has been teaching students to be kind, sympathetic, and empathetic all year! With such a rough society that we live in, we want them to spread their kindness into our surrounding communities. Our mission is to help spread kindness and be empathetic to those who need it by donating toys and games to comfort kids at a hospital nearby!

The children at this hospital can use some emotional and spiritual uplifting with these donated toys and games!

The toys and games requested will play an important role in helping these children recover from their stressful situations. The items will allow them to be distracted from their health and allow them to be happy! I want my students to have this opportunity to make an impact on these children's lives. My students will also be attaching a warm and positive message to these children!
