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

The items I am requesting to be donated will help students in my class and school by providing essential items that might not be provided to them at home. Some items that are included in this project are items that some students may not feel confident to ask for. However, if they are notified that these things are available, they have the opportunity to use them if necessary.

This project will learn to build trust and respect by realizing their wants and needs.

This Care Closet helps build community with communication and appreciation of others' needs.

Mrs. Redona Cottonwood Elementary School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
