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

In this project I am asking for two metal shelves to store bins of winter snow gear for our students. We have a community pantry that stores snow gear for students who need it. Right now it is not organized and not accessible for teachers to be able to hand out snow gear to students who need it.

These racks will be great for holding the containers of snow gear that we have.

We will be able to label the bins and put them up on the racks. It will be easier to find snow gear that will fit the students who need it, rather than looking through piles of gear. Many of our families can not afford winter gear and depend on us for help.

Thank you for reading my project. I want to keep all of our students safe and warm.
