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

MAMH always celebrates Black History Month and I like to contribute by doing bulletin boards around the school.

By donating to this project you will help our decorations be more spectacular and less stressful than the previous years.

More supplies, mean more students will be able to contribute and help them feel more like a community and a part of the school. There is nothing quite like knowing you helped make the school celebrate such an important month.

The skin tone paint and brushes ensures that all skin tones will be honored.

The cardstock ensures that anyone can help contribute, even if they are "not an artist".

The glitter is to add some sparkles to catch everyone's eye.

The poster board means we will not have to hunt dumpsters to find cardboard.

Please considering joining us in celebrating Black history month, it would mean the world to us.
