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'm seeking donations to help support my Multilingual Learner Students in kindergarten and first-grade classroom with essential supplies for the school year. While I do my best to create a nurturing and engaging environment, my school sometimes lacks the resources needed to provide basic materials for every student. Your support will help fill that gap and ensure all of my students have the tools they need to thrive.

Items like pencils, crayons, notebooks, glue sticks, dry erase boards, and learning games are more than just classroom basics—they are the building blocks for foundational skills like reading, writing, and math.

These supplies help make learning hands-on, interactive, and fun. When children have access to the right tools, they’re more confident, focused, and ready to engage in the learning process every day.

My goal is to create an organized, well-supplied, and inspiring classroom where all students can explore and learn without limits. I want to make sure every child—regardless of their background—has access to the materials they need to succeed and feel included in all classroom activities.

My students are bright, curious, and full of potential. They come from diverse backgrounds, and many face challenges outside of school that make their time in the classroom even more important. Despite these obstacles, they show up ready to learn and give their best every day. They are kind, resilient, and eager to grow—and they deserve every opportunity to succeed.

Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference. Thank you for considering helping our classroom flourish!
