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

I love my students’ resilience, curiosity, and determination to succeed despite challenges. They are bright, ambitious, and eager to learn, but many face obstacles.

This project will provide essential feminine hygiene products, ensuring that no student has to miss class or feel uncomfortable due to a lack of supplies.

By meeting this fundamental need, students can focus on their education without distraction, embarrassment, or stress.

My goal is to create a supportive, inclusive environment where all students feel empowered and prepared to learn and succeed in the academic and in their specific trade. Access to these resources will help build confidence, improve attendance, and promote equity in our diverse school community.

My students are special because they are strong, compassionate, and driven. They deserve the opportunity to learn without barriers. Your support will help them stay engaged in school and reach their full potential.
