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

This project helps to support our classroom where we are dedicated to providing a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment for the students and families we serve. As part of our ongoing efforts to promote good hygiene and prevent illness, we are needing hand soap and cleaning supplies. We have our own bathroom and our school has run out of hand soap.

Maintaining proper hygiene is more important than ever, especially in settings where many students and adults come together daily.

Access to hand soap and effective cleaning products is crucial in reducing the spread of germs and keeping our community healthy. These supplies help us teach students the importance of handwashing, keep shared surfaces clean, and create an environment where learning and growth can flourish without interruption from avoidable illnesses.
