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

The students in my school are an incredible group of enthusiastic, energetic, and motivated children. They come to school everyday with bright smiles on their faces and are excited to learn something new. Each student brings their own unique style of learning to our school. They make teaching and learning fun, enthusiastic and enjoyable. The students in my school come from a wide range of family dynamics. Even though they come from different backgrounds they all share one thing, they want to come to school to be great learners, to be kind, and to please those around them.

Since we work hard all day I want to start an after school program where students can create projects using the computer and Cricut machine to make their projects come to life.

The Cricut Maker 3 and tools it comes with will help make this after school program possible.

Your donations will help the students in my school participate in an after school program that teaches them how to navigate around Cricut Design Space on the computer and to work on the Cricut Maker 3.

Thank you in advance.
