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

Every year we have an epic send off for our fantastic and amazing kindergarteners. This year the budget is TIGHT. We are not sure that they will get the send off the past years have allowed for us. Here's where you can help!

Help get us some books and small necessities to send all our school's kindergarteners into first grade with new materials and feeling loved.

We are hoping to get them water bottles, books, pencils, and decorate their little celebration with a photo background. We understand that this may be a young grade to celebrate this big, however they are such hard working kids. They deserve to see some joy and excitement at the end of such a pivotal and transitional year in their education journey. Thank you for your support!
