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

I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to share an urgent need for classroom supplies.

The shortage of these supplies has a profound impact on the quality of education we can provide.

Students often struggle to focus and participate without adequate writing instruments and paper. The absence of essential tools like compasses hinders their ability to explore and understand concepts in mathematics and science.

This is where your generosity can truly make a difference. Your support can directly impact the lives of our students by ensuring they have access to the resources they need to thrive academically. By donating pencils, pens, markers, highlighters, erasers, lined paper, blank paper, painter's tape, compasses, and stools, you are investing in the future of our youth and empowering them to reach their full potential.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will be greatly appreciated and put to immediate use. Whether you can provide a single pack of pencils or a set of stools, every donation counts and brings us one step closer to fulfilling our mission of providing quality education for all.

Thank you for considering our request. Your kindness will help create a better learning environment for our students.

Best regards,

Meaghan Ward

Ms. Ward
Grades 9-12
