Help me give my students supplies they need to express themselves and grow into confident, capable readers. These tools make a huge difference in our daily learning and help bring their voices to life on the page.
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
What I love most about my students is their curiosity, creativity, and resilience. They come to class ready to learn, grow, and share their ideas—even when resources are limited. My students are thoughtful, hardworking, and full of potential, and they deserve every opportunity to shine.
Each pencil, pen, and sheet of paper helps them take one more step toward becoming confident readers and expressive writers.
With these basic tools, they can draft essays, write poems, annotate texts, and brainstorm ideas. These supplies aren't just classroom items—they’re the keys that unlock their voice, their thinking, and their future success.
By supporting this project, you’re helping create a space where every student is equipped, encouraged, and empowered to succeed.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
