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 am a first-time teacher and would love to see my students succeed in a comfortable and safe environment. With your help I can make that possible!

I believe we all feel better when our environment is pleasing to watch and being surrounded with helpful resources; like comfy chairs and bookshelves to sit and relax while you read a book can be the way!

I am extremely grateful with each donation and promise to put everything to use! Thank you so much and can’t wait to see my vision come to life.
