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

At Compton Early College High School we need your help to provide our high-achieving students, the class of 2023, with a memorable decision day. All materials such as a printer and dorm essentials will be raffled off to our amazing students, in order to provide financial support as they purchase college essentials.

All seniors have taken a full load of high school and college courses while still contributing to their households as babysitters, translators, and tutors.

Many students will even graduate high school with an IGETC certification or AA degree! With your help, we hope to recognize the efforts and sacrifices of each student by providing them with an extraordinary in-person celebration. We appreciate your support. Go Phoenix!
