Help me give my students from kindergarten, first grade, second, third, fourth, and fifth grade, a space where they can express themselves freely, heal through colors, and grow through melodies.

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
🎨🎶 Art and Music with Heart
A project to inspire through creativity
Hello! I’m an art and music teacher at a school where many of our students face emotional and social challenges. I truly believe that art and music are more than just subjects — they are languages that help express what words often cannot.
In my classroom, we learn by having fun: we sing, paint, create, play, and dream. Every activity is designed to help children explore their emotions, build self-esteem, and develop their creativity.
My dream is to create a space full of materials, instruments, and opportunities so that every child can express themselves freely and with joy. But to make this possible, I need your support.
With your donation, you’re giving more than just colors or songs — you’re planting hope, love, and confidence in every child.
Thank you for believing in the power of art and music.
Thank you for supporting Art and Music with Heart.
More than half of students from low‑income households
