Celebrating 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
What I love most about my students is their creativity, ambition, and eagerness to learn even when resources are limited. In our Title I school, these young entrepreneurs show up with big ideas and bright futures, and this program gives them the tools to turn those dreams into action.
With access to a 3D printer, they’ll be able to prototype their business ideas hands-on.
Supplies for certificates and rewards will help us recognize their progress and boost their confidence. A color printer will support professional-looking projects and industry certifications, while books focused on entrepreneurship and personal growth will help them explore ideas, sharpen their vision, and build clarity for their future.
Every resource we add is a step toward unlocking their potential and giving them the platform to think bigger, plan ahead, and proudly share their innovative thinking with the world.
