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

Dear Perspective Donor,

I was once in your seat, I donated to teachers to help them with their students and their projects and now I am on the other side asking for your help.

I first started as a parent volunteer for the Home and School Club, similar to a PTA but with no paid memberships. I have been here since 2017. This is my first year as an employee of the Library and I have seen some books that have seen better days. Some of these books are so out dated and old that the kids no longer can read them due to the pages being ripped, fragile or damaged from constant use.

I would like to add new books that bring up Kindness, Courage, Reflection, Integrity, Leadership, and Fun. These would not be possible to purchase as our funds are low and we are a Title 1 school.

Many of our students would love to read the latest book, the newest Dog Man, or the chance to see what would happen if they became the newest Messi in 15 years. Please help my kids get new books. It would mean the world to them.
