Change Starts With Us

Help me give my students sign holders, chalkboard sidewalk sign, and fundraising guide to fundraising for community causes and projects.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tracy's classroom raised $368

This project is fully funded

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 have student government students who intend on making a difference for our school and our surrounding community. They are hoping to have community events and fundraisers to support the community as a whole both within the school and outside of the school. The sign holders and chalkboard sidewalk sign will be used to have events where information can be easily seen. The fundraising guide will help in shaping socially aware fundraisers.

Our community is a reflection of us and is our foundation.

This project serves two purposes one is helping the community through making community events and welcoming the outside community to our school. The second purpose is it is teaching our students how to get the most of every resource and make every dollar count.
