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

We need these materials to help us learn! Some students are unable to bring supplies to school. We also often run out of basic materials in the middle of the year like pencils, markers, and crayons, because of all the learning and projects we do.

My students are such hard workers and deserve to have classroom supplies.

The supplies we are purchasing with this project are pencils, markers, binders, crayons, and printer ink. Please help our students continue to learn by donating basic school supplies to our classroom! Thank you for our support.
