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

This project was designed to uplift my students' homework experience. The copy printer paper will make sure homework is always ready even when the school runs out. The request for Epson ink is to add a pop of color to the traditional boring black and white sheets. The Bostitch electric stapler will allow more time for teaching, as less time will be needed for stapling. The snacks including Larabars, Skinnypop popcorn, trail mix, and fruit snacks will make sure students have the nutrition they need at home.

Many students need a little extra love and care to get their work done at home.

I sincerely thank you for considering a donation to provide a little homework boost for our scholars.
