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 heat press and accessories are amazing tools to support the vocational skills, financial literacy, and creative expression for the students with a diagnosis with autism at FHS.

The special needs students will create personalized products (mugs, travel mugs, t-shirts, etc) to sell at pop-up shops in school and community.

Our students will create the designs, use the heat press machine and the cutting machines to create products to sell and raise money for our classroom's field trips, vocational training, and transportation to our trips and trainings.

Please consider donating to our creative entrepreneurial project that will give hands-on experience for our students with autism. Thank you!
