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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I'm reaching out to share a project close to my heart: bringing environmental books to kids through Donors Choose. It's all about connecting children with nature and teaching them the importance of taking care of our planet, one story at a time.

Imagine kids diving into tales of outdoor adventures, while also learning about conservation and sustainability.

With your support, I can make sure every child has access to these enriching stories and the knowledge to make a positive impact.

Your donation will make a real difference, helping me provide these valuable resources to classrooms, libraries, and homes. Let's inspire a new generation of environmentally-conscious citizens, one book at a time.

Grades PreK-2
