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

My amazing 2nd graders are eager to learn, create, and grow daily! But our classroom needs supplies to make learning durable, vibrant, and organized. With your help, we can get a laminating machine, colored pencils, sharpeners, colored paper, and timers to turn our classroom into a space where little hands can explore, create, and build confidence.

Every dollar brings us closer to giving these 2nd graders the tools they need to succeed.

Your support ensures they can:

✔️ Practice sight words on durable laminated cards.

✔️ Write colorful stories with their pencils.

✔️ Stay on task with cheerful timers.

✔️ Create projects that make learning joyful!

Our school serves a community where the majority of students face economic hardships. Many of my 2nd graders arrive without basic supplies like crayons or scissors. They love hands-on activities, but worn-out paper flashcards tear easily, and shared pencils often go unsharpened. Your support will give them the tools they need to practice reading, math, and teamwork—skills that set the foundation for lifelong success!
