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 teach at a school filled with brilliant, imaginative students who light up when they are given the chance to create. Many of my students come from under-resourced communities, yet they bring so much heart, energy, and raw talent into our classroom every day.

This project will allow us to build an art corner where students can express themselves freely using materials like colored pencils, paints, sketchbooks, and markers.

These supplies will support social-emotional learning, boost confidence, and integrate creativity into our lessons across all subject areas. Your donation will give them the tools they need to tell their stories through color and creativity, and every brushstroke will reflect the difference you've made!
