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 Interact students are passionate about helping their community, their earth and their world. This project will give them the tools and materials they need to do some campus beautification. Just before the start of the school year, they lost one of their fellow club members in a tragic car accident. They would like to plant a tree in her honor. The soil, tools, and gloves will help them to honor her memory while also improving and contributing to their school. We very much appreciate your support for this project, as it means a lot to us.
