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

Funding Request for Owl Pellets for Third Grade! I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out on behalf of my school’s third-grade science program to request funding for owl pellets. These pellets play a crucial role in our hands-on learning approach, allowing students to dissect and explore the dietary habits of owls.

By supporting this initiative, you contribute to our students' education and foster a deeper understanding of the natural world.

Your generous contribution will make a lasting impact on their learning experience.

The students of this Title I school in NM really appreciate your consideration. We are a school with a diverse student population. Generosity of donors is so appreciated!

Thank you for your time and support.
