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

My students and I would love your support in our ongoing efforts to promote racial justice and representation within our educational community.

As educators, it is our responsibility to provide students with diverse perspectives and narratives that reflect the richness of our society.

We are currently seeking donations for books that focus on themes of racial justice, equity, and representation. These resources will be invaluable in helping our students understand and engage with these critical issues.

Your support in this initiative will not only enrich our students' learning experiences but also foster a more inclusive and understanding environment.

Thank you for considering our request. Together, we can make a significant impact in fostering a more equitable and just learning environment for our students.
