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 are reaching out to our generous community to help ensure our students feel cared for, comfortable, and supported throughout their school day. Many students face challenges that go beyond just learning—whether it’s needing a little extra warmth, some emotional comfort, or a basic first aid item.

We are asking for donations of items that will help provide warmth, comfort, and care, such as:First aid supplies, Comfort items (stress-relief toys, small stuffed animals), and Water bottles.

Every donation, big or small, will go directly toward providing these essential items for our students. Your support will make a lasting impact on their well-being, allowing them to feel safe, comfortable, and ready to focus on learning.
