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 Students

Hello!

I would like to take a few minutes to introduce my students and this special project we are hoping you can help us fund!

My students are 6th, 7th, and 8th graders who have chosen to be part of a program I have designed named "Impactful Living". We are an inner city school in Watts, Los Angeles, California. My students live in neighborhoods that are stricken with violence and much crime and they are wanting to make a difference right in their neighborhoods.

My students are amazing kids, they come in years behind from an academic stand point, but try their best everyday to improve their own and others' lives.

My Project

We are asking for your support to purchase hygiene and food products to make and deliver packages to homeless people around Los Angeles so they can stay warm, clean and hopefully healthy!

We believe that supporting our local homeless and disadvantaged families will give them strength to have a better day and better life!

We need fleece blankets to distribute out to homeless and the less fortunate! We want everyone to have something to call their own and not worry about hygiene and their health.

We will be putting together packages and making cards and origami that contain inspirational messages to instill belief in the less fortunate that they are valuable and they deserve basic necessities!
