Brrrr... It's Cold Outside!

Help me give my students hats and gloves to stay warm this cold winter!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Petillo's classroom raised $185

This project is fully funded

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

The hats, scarfs, and gloves will go directly to students who need those items this winter season!

Everyone deserves to stay warm during the cold winter!

As a Special Education teacher in a NYC Title I school, where nearly all of our students are from low-income households, I take great care in knowing that our students can walk to school each morning in appropriately warm clothing and feel comfortable traveling to school this winter.

Please consider donating to make the cold season feel like a breeze for our little scholars and their families!
