My Project

In this project, I am asking for forks, spoons, knives and serving gloves for our Multicultural Night Celebration. This is a free event for families to come and enjoy performances from different cultures, eat good food, and have fun! It is very important to learn about other cultures. What better way to learn about cultures than through the great taste of food? One of the best parts of our school is how diverse it is. We all love to celebrate one another’s cultures in our school. We are asking for utensils for our families to try food from many cultures.

By learning more about food from other cultures, we also learn about the history, geography, climate, economy, and many other factors that make each country or region unique.

Sharing meals makes bridging cultural divides simpler.

Please consider helping us fund this project, it will bring joy to many of our families!
