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

This project will help us make sure that every child in our class has access to healthy snacks. Children cannot learn when they are hungry, but unfortunately many children in our community experience food insecurity. As New Yorkers struggle with rising costs for food and other necessities, food insecurity rates in the city remain near historic highs. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, our community was facing a profound hunger crisis, but the situation is now worsening, with one in every four children experiencing food insecurity. Please help our children grow healthy bodies and minds thanks to your donation.
