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

We are seeking funding to provide free personal care items such as deodorant, shampoo, lotion, and other hygiene essentials for students in our community. Many of the families we serve face economic challenges, leaving students without access to basic necessities. This lack of resources not only impacts their personal confidence but can also negatively affect their school attendance and overall academic success.

Our Student Marketplace is designed to meet this critical need by providing all students access to essential personal care items.

This initiative ensures students feel supported, valued, and equipped to thrive in their educational journey. By addressing basic needs, the Marketplace helps students focus on learning, build self-esteem, and foster a strong sense of belonging within the school community.

Through the Marketplace, every student has the opportunity to select five items each month at no cost, empowering them to choose the products that best suit their needs. This approach not only provides practical support but also encourages independence and dignity, helping students feel more confident and prepared for success.

We believe this program will make a meaningful difference in the lives of our students, promoting both equity and opportunity. We would be grateful for your support in making this vision a reality.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
