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.

Support Our School’s Zen Den – A Safe Space for Students to Recharge
We are dedicated to creating an environment where every student can thrive – emotionally, mentally, and academically.
That’s why we’ve created the Zen Den: a quiet, peaceful space where kids can take a moment to breathe, relax, and reset when they feel overwhelmed.
Our Zen Den provides students with a safe space to manage their emotions, relieve stress, and focus on their well-being. It’s especially important for our students, many of whom face challenges outside of school, as it offers them a chance to take a break, reflect, and return to class feeling calm and ready to learn.
We need your help to make this space even better! We are asking for help provide calming tools, a modular couch and other cozy furniture, sensory items, and other resources that will make the Zen Den a welcoming, effective space for all of our students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
