Celebrating 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
Imagine a classroom where students don’t just learn about science, history, or literature — they build it. With your support, I’m creating a dynamic Makerspace where scholars can design, create, and innovate using hands-on tools and materials. This space will empower students to construct artifacts that deepen their understanding of academic content while also nurturing creativity, problem-solving, and entrepreneurial thinking.
.
Whether building a model of a historical invention, designing a prototype for a STEM challenge, or creating a product to solve a real-world problem, our Makerspace will be a hub of exploration and ingenuity.
Beyond academic enrichment, this space will inspire young entrepreneurs by encouraging students to think like designers, inventors, and business leaders. With your help, we can give students the tools and freedom to explore their passions — and maybe even build the next big idea.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
