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

My after school arts and crafts class is going to start soon next month. I have some new things I would love to try with my kids this year. On top of that, I would like to have some snacks they can snack on while they do some cool arts and crafts.

This year, I want to try new and different kinds of way of arts and crafts.

That's why I ask if you help out by donating to this project. We need stone painting kits, bead kits, sand art, and more!

Thanks so much for your help and kind donation. I know you could be donating somewhere other than TCS, but you helped us and for that thanks.
