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

Being a new teacher is both exciting and challenging, and I’m dedicated to creating a warm, supportive, and engaging classroom for my 3rd-5th grade special education students. Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and feel valued, and I want to provide them with the best resources possible. However, I can’t do it alone. Your generosity can help me give my students the tools like a giant pillow to relax on, supplies like model magic, books from the Goosebumps series, and Science kits that provide the opportunities they need to thrive. Every donation, big or small, makes a meaningful impact. Thank you for your kindness and for believing in these amazing students!
