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

Our school has some amazing students who may need some extra support when it comes to basic needs, including hygiene products. Your donation will help support those students most in need who need toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, menstrual products like pads and tampons, and more.

Our families need these supplies!

This is especially important for our students who may have unstable housing or who are experiencing homelessness. Basic needs products get used quickly and can add up for families who may be struggling. All these donated materials will be available for ALL students at no cost to them. Thank you!
