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

There are many things that my students need. At the moment I want to provide them with things that will keep them comfortable and full. We got a donation of bean bags last year but unfortunately they were not full and now it brings no comfort. As for for the snacks I would like them to have something extra for them to eat before they go home. Some of these students will not have another meal until the next day. These same students also don't have the essentials like pencils and want them to have a writing utensil so they can complete their work on a timely manner.
