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

Whenever we have school events, we either have to go down one of two avenues. Either renting a machine from an outside source or purchasing the machines with money we have fundraised, thus taking money away from other parts of our events.

With this hot dog machine, we will no longer need to rely on outside vendors and we can focus some of our funding on other things for the students, all while providing food for our students in the long run.

This hot dog steamer, with the accompanying supplies and accoutrements will definitely help at school dances, Senior Nights, Game Nights, Trivia Nights, and many others in our quest to allow our students to have their very best year of high school. We are firm believers in providing our students with memorable events they will remember far beyond the walls of our school. This machine and the accompanying supplies takes us closer to where we want to go!
