Mrs. Young from Albuquerque NM is requesting lab equipment through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Keep Culinary Students Cooking While at Home

Help me give my students basic culinary tools they need in order to be successful completing cooking labs at home while virtual learning. Many students do not have something as simple as measuring spoons or measuring cups.

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

I teach at a Title I school where students are predominantly Hispanic and ninety percent of the population receives free or reduced lunches.

The students that I teach are hardworking students that find joy in cooking.

They are caring and put their families needs above their own. Many students families were hit hard due to COVID-19 and got jobs to help support their families. Many of them will become the first to graduate high school in their family.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting will go to the homes of each of my students. Many who cannot afford basic kitchen supplies like measuring spoons, measuring cups, and bowls. By supporting this project you will not only support the students, but their families.

By providing these supplies and materials to my students they will have a greater chance of succeeding while completing their culinary assignments at home.

This will help to alleviate stress on families and students by not requiring them to supply these tools in order to complete assignments.

Many students have to make the choice between completing assignments at home and purchasing tools and materials needed to complete them. I already provide all the food they need, please help me provide some basic tools and materials in order for them to experience the joys of cooking as well as gain a valuable life skill.
