Help me give my students the resources to learn and make smart money decisions
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mahan's classroom raised $538
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
The books I have requested will go into our rolling student library to give them guidance on money decisions that will help them with their future. Many of these lessons people don't learn until later in life and they are vital to propel them into success.
This is special because many of my students come from backgrounds that are generationally poor.
They can't break the cycle they don't know they are in. They can use this to help themselves and their families to make better and more profitable choices for the long term.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
