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

My students are all extraordinary kids! Most of these students reside in a poor, urban area that is grossly underfunded, and, in some areas, lacking even the most basic of needs. Although many of them come from tough neighborhoods and lifestyles, they are strong, smart, and full of life. These are the scientists of tomorrow.

Each of these individuals has a mind for science and a contribution to make to the scientific world.

Their ingenuity is exceptional, and their thirst for learning is unquenchable. I learn more from them than they do from me! These kids are the kinds of kids that inspire innovation. They are the example that leaders should be following and the hope that will fuel the future.

My Project

Please help my students by donating to provide them with food and water to get them through the school day. The water bottles will be assigned to the students and refilled during the day to encourage recycling.

Students can't learn when their basic needs aren't met.

This will provide full stomachs so that their minds can be ready to learn. Please consider donating to this project. The students will be so happy to have food to eat.

Some students will bring food home over long weekends or breaks in school.
