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 purpose of this project is to obtain coloring and journaling books and pencils for our wellness center, Serenity Space. These items will help to provide our students with opportunities to practice mindfulness skills and calming techniques throughout their busy day.

Coloring and journaling are tools that can be utilized throughout life and can open the door to healing and self-discovery.

This will provide our students with a means to be creative and expressive; while receiving the calming and smoothing benefits of the tools. It's a healthy way to release tension and provide quiet moments of self-reflection.

Ms. Jones High School for Law Advocacy and Community Justice Grades 9-12

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

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
