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

Our elementary school serves a diverse community, many of whom face economic challenges. A significant number of our students come from low-income families who struggle to afford basic necessities, including hygiene products and few office supplies. We need your support to create a more nurturing environment for our students.

In our school health office, we are often in need of extra first aid supplies and hygeine products that go home with student, due to no first aid supplies and hygiene products at home.

Without these items, our students are at risk of health issues and social challenges that can affect their academic performance and overall well-being. Additionally, we need essential office supplies like folders and crayons to ensure that our health office can operate efficiently and provide the necessary support to our students. I print out free color pages to use while students wait for parents to pick them up. Many of my parents work and sometimes students wait for parents lunch break to get them. I send home extra crayons and print-outs to give them something to do while healing or home sick.

By donating to our project, you will directly contribute to improving the daily lives of our students. Your generosity will help us provide the hygiene products and office supplies that are essential for maintaining a healthy and productive school environment. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of our students, ensuring they have the resources they need to succeed both in and out of the classroom. Thank you for considering our request and for your potential support.
