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

My Students

Our students come from diverse backgrounds and need your help in obtaining educational materials.

Many of our students don't have access to certain materials due to budget cuts in our state. Our school helps students who belong to a beautiful, low-income community.

Our school is special because we have certain programs that specialize in helping students with specific learning disabilities.

We are a community of diverse learners who need help with equal access to educational supplies. We hope you can help us in our educational journey!

Our school only receives art classes for a limited number of students each year. I took an arts training that taught me how to use Textured Art Plates and Rubbing Crayons in the classroom for a variety of subjects. I am willing to train teachers how to use these materials, but I need your help getting the art materials to make this school-wide learning experience happen.

The Textured Rubbing Plates and Rubbing Crayons you donate will be used to enhance our literature program.

Students will use these materials to make art projects about the literature pieces that are being studied. These supplies will make a difference because many students don't have access to these supplies. This will help them use art materials they have never used before.
