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

We're reaching out for your support to bring the magic of photography to our 8th-grade students during their week-long field trip to Washington, DC, and Philadelphia. By acquiring film for our Polaroid cameras, we aim to transform this educational journey into a memorable experience.

The film will allow students to capture candid moments, creating instant mementos of their travels and adventures.

The project's goal is to provide a unique and tangible way for students to document and cherish their experiences, fostering a deeper connection with the places they explore and the friendships they form along the way.

Our 8th-grade students are a special group with diverse talents and a shared enthusiasm for learning through experiences. Your contribution will not only provide them with a creative outlet but also enable them to craft personal keepsakes from their trip, preserving memories that will last a lifetime. Join us in making this field trip unforgettable, as we empower our students to be both explorers and storytellers through the lens of these cameras.
