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 young students need art resources to use on a daily basis in all academic subjects. Our students love art! They need more art supplies to start the year!

Art stimulates creativity and problem-solving skills.

An art project begins with a creative spark and lets kids bring their imagination to life. Children thrive when they can practice decision-making and express themselves without worrying about a right or wrong answer. Young children can learn how to trust themselves and communicate their thoughts and feelings with art.

Thank you for your donations.
