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

Many of my students come to school lacking the necessary supplies for the school year. Many of them do not have the ability to buy these supplies.

With this donation, I will be able to supply students with stools, pencils, sanitizing wipes, and hand sanitizer so they do not have to worry about providing their own supplies.

They can now focus on their learning knowing they have everything they need to be successful.

During cold and flu season, I will also be able to supply students with disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizer so we can keep our classroom germ free and healthy.

With this project, I will be able to provide students with supplies needed so they can stay successful and focus on the learning, rather than where they will find their supplies.
