Celebrating 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 Students
I teach in a large urban public school in New York. The majority of our students are immigrants from very diverse backgrounds, including the Dominican Republic, Bangladesh, West African and Latin America. More than half of our student population is learning English as a new language.
While culturally our students are diverse, economically 94% of our students come from low-income households and qualify to receive reduced price or free breakfast and lunch.
Recently the city’s initiative, “Breakfast in the Classroom” has been a very successful program in our school, which ensured that our students received the nutrients and energy needed to begin their academic day.
Despite the day-to-day obstacles, our students work very hard to get into well-reputed high schools within the City. In the recent years, a few of our alumni got acceptance to the city’s prestigious specialized high schools. Our students need your support to fund resources to further their education.
My Project
My students are young teenagers who are going through puberty. In this time of major bodily changes, they need guidance on appropriate hygiene and have access to quality products to take care of themselves.
Unfortunately many students are living in dire poverty and DO NOT have access to basic hygiene products such as deodorants and feminine hygiene products.
Hence, we need your help! Please help me provide these basic supplies, which many of us take for granted. My students deserve a fair chance to have a "normal" teenage life and they cannot do that if they do not have access to basic supplies.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
