Backpacks for High School Students in Need

Help me give my students backpacks for those who do not have one due to being unable to afford one.

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

Please help support our high school community.

The funds donated will purchase backpacks for students who do not have one due to being unable to afford one.

Please consider helping out a high school student who needs a backpack to carry around their essential items for school. This need is greater than we anticipated, and we have quickly run out of backpacks donated through the community and previously fully funded donors choose projects. Thank you in advance for your generosity, and we hope that you know the difference that you are making!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
