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

My school's population is very special; there are students coming from different countries, trying to go forward and accomplish their academic dreams successfully as they are completing their senior year.

A quick, nutritious snack can do wonders for students who may not have time for a proper meal before class or didn't have one.

A snack can help them stay focused, energized, and ready to participate actively in their learning.

To make this possible, I’m reaching out to our community for support. Your contributions would definitely allow me to restock supplies as needed throughout the season.

Your generosity can have a direct and immediate impact on the lives of hardworking students. A small snack or a warm cup of tea might seem like a minor thing, but it can mean so much to someone who’s had a long day. Together, we can create an even more supportive and inclusive classroom environment.
