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

Help make a difference for my 80 students this fall, who are in need of supplies for school and their English classroom. Every student wants to start off the year on a good foot, and so do their teachers. It is essential for teachers to have the supplies necessary to meet the expectations of their students. Without basic needs being met, learning cannot take place.

Help me give my students tissues, pencils, notebooks, and other tools they need to succeed in their first year of high school.

Our school is considered a Title I school as over 50% of our students come from lower-income areas. I always try to make them feel wanted and seen in my classroom. A small donation can make a difference in the lives of my students.
