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

Our Middle School Adventurers Club began this 23-24 school year with a handful of kids and tripled in size almost immediately. The growth of the club has exceeded all expectations I had for it and the amount of supplies I had ready for them.

My students need more activities that engage them mentally in a fun and effective manner.

These supplies will strengthen their literacy, numeracy skills, critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, and their social skills. This will also provide more after school activities outside of sports that will in turn increase student engagement with the school.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
