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

Let's complete the picture! Help us paint a brighter future. In our quest to nurture young artists, we're thrilled to introduce paintbrushes and smocks to our upcoming art enrichment project. These tools aren't just accessories; they're catalysts for creativity, igniting imaginations and turning blank canvases into vibrant works of art. With your generous support through Donors Choose, we can ensure that my first graders have everything they need to explore their artistic talents safely and confidently.

Join us in providing the tools for self-expression and empowerment.

Please donate now and be part of our colorful journey towards creativity and growth!
