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
We teach our students to dream big and this care package is just one way we can support students in their big dreams! The students who will benefit from this project come from low socioeconomic status. Due to the current climate, students are experiencing higher levels of stress and frustration as a result of many factors, one being the impact this pandemic has had on the economy. Life after high school is daunting enough without the fear of wondering how they can afford to support their dreams and ambitions. This is one less worry they will have to have!
The students are the first to attend college in their families.
I couldn't be prouder of them! I know they have a lot of fears and trepidation surrounding their commitments; so this care package is just one way to continue to support them in their post-graduation plans. Thank you for any help.
My Project
The students who will be receive this care package are from financially disadvantaged family who now, more so than ever (due to the effect the pandemic has had on the economy) could use the help getting started and settled in their post-secondary plans. They are allso the first in their families to attend college.
With many families unable to work, buying every day necessities, never mind college supplies, is very daunting.
This care package consists of shower items for 10 deserving students. I want to set my students up with a shower caddy, bodywash, and loofas for their dorms.
This will help take the burden off of these families and help these students get started and settled into life after high school! Many of our students go to their dorms with nothing. I don't want that to happen to them.
What I am asking for is only a small piece of the college pie they need in order to thrive in college. Every little bit helps. I want to be able to show my students that someone cares and believes in them, so that they have that extra motivational push to make it through. Thank you so much for any help.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
