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 classroom is dedicated to fostering a love for learning through engaging STEAM lessons. I am excited to create an outdoor classroom garden to enrich our curriculum further. Your support in providing gardening supplies such as garden beds, soil, tools, and a hummingbird feeder would significantly enhance our students' learning experience.

This garden will serve as a calming space where they can connect with nature and learn about sustainability, responsibility, and teamwork.

Many of our students lack outdoor areas for gardening, making your contribution even more impactful. We sincerely appreciate your anticipated financial support.
