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

Exciting news! Our school is gearing up for an Earth Day-themed parade, and we're reaching out to you for support to make it a resounding success. As we prepare to march in celebration of our planet, we're seeking donations of shirts to outfit our students and staff in a unified display of environmental stewardship.

At our elementary school, we believe in the power of education and community engagement to foster positive change.

Our Earth Day Parade is not only a fun and festive event but also an opportunity to raise awareness about environmental issues and inspire sustainable action.

To make this parade a visually impactful statement, we're aiming to provide matching shirts for all participants. This is where your support comes in!

Your contribution will not only enhance the spirit of our parade but will also demonstrate your dedication to supporting education and environmental sustainability
