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

Hello! I am requesting items to kick off our new Career Closet at MHS. All items that we are asking for will be used to maintain the cleanliness and quality of donated professional clothing. We have reached out to local businesses and community members to donate professional clothing to our first-ever Millikan Career Closet. Fortunately, we have received many pieces of clothing to create our closet, and we look forward to being able to supplement this closet to ensure we have variety and inclusivity for sizing.

The purpose of this initiative is to provide students with the opportunity to access free, professional clothing.

The goal is to create equitable access for students who do not have appropriate clothing readily available for formal interviews.

Ms. Sanchez
Grades 9-12
