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

Dear donors, we are reaching the final stretch of the school year. The end of the school year is always a busy time of the year with testing and field trips and simply end of the year activities.

In this project I am requesting a variety of snacks for my 6th graders that will be given as incentives for their hard work in class completing projects and tests.

Some of the items I selected include chips, Sour belts and fruits snacks. My students work very hard and these snacks will get them through the last days in school. Thanks in advance for your support with making this project possible.
