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 me put the basic school supplies my students need to have a successful school year. Many of my parents are from limited incomes and do not have the necessary funds for the added expense of providing their children with the basic school supplies. Help me relieve these parents of this additional stress.

With your help, my eager little learners will have the tools they need to learn.

My students, from low income families are excited to come to school every day. Your generosity will put the tools they need to be competent and ready to succeed in their academic careers!
