Invest in the Past: Support U.S. History in the Present

Help me give my students the supports they need. Our students need a time-travel toolkit—U.S. History books and eye-catching posters—to turn our classroom into a journey through America’s past!

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 U.S. History class is diving deep into the events, people, and movements that shaped our nation—but we need your help to make history come alive.

We're seeking donations to fund essential classroom materials: books, visual aids, project supplies, and printing resources for a creative student-led project called “Booking History.” This project allows students to explore key historical moments through images and storytelling, helping them connect with the past in meaningful ways.

Your support will directly impact student learning, engagement, and creativity. Every dollar helps us build a richer, more immersive educational experience.
