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

We are excited to share that our Garden Club, which includes eager young gardeners from kindergarten through 2nd grade, and 5th grade is in full bloom!

As we teach our students the joys and benefits of gardening, we are asking for your help in providing essential equipment that will allow our children to continue their hands-on learning in a safe and effective way.

We are currently in need of the following items: Gardening gloves (child-sized), Hoes, Rakes, Spray nozzles for watering, Water buckets for easy access to hydration, A storage shed to safely keep all of our equipment.

These tools will not only help our students actively engage in gardening tasks but also teach them valuable lessons in responsibility, teamwork, and the environment.

The students can't wait to share the vegetables and fruits that they are planting.

Your generous donations will directly impact our ability to create a vibrant, sustainable garden space for our young learners to enjoy.

Thank you so much for your support!
