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

These children have a real love for learning. They love to read, write, and work with one another. Unfortunately, they are not always given the materials that they need. We are part of a large, inner city often needing more supplies and materials to gain success.

My students love to work hard and share their work.

They are always asking: "so what do we do next?" Your donations will help bring students' work to life. They will be able to add color to their writing using markers.

The students often work in small groups on computers. The headphones will help students work in productive environments where they will not be distracted by another's group's activity.
