Empowering Special Education Students Through a Coffee Shop Business

Help me give my students supplies to run a successful coffee shop business.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Fagundes's classroom raised $430

This project is fully funded

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 program serves adult students with special needs, providing them with essential life and vocational skills to prepare them for greater independence. The coffee shop is a key part of our curriculum, allowing students to learn everything from customer service to money management.

Running a coffee shop helps our students develop critical skills like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving.

However, to make this experience truly impactful, we need your help in securing the necessary supplies and equipment.

With the right tools, our students can operate the coffee shop more independently, learning valuable lessons that extend far beyond the classroom. Your donation will support their education and empower them to build a brighter future.

Your support will make a lasting impact on the lives of our students, giving them the tools they need to succeed. Thank you for considering a donation to our project!
