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.
I work at an elementary school in Dallas, Texas. It is one of the lower socio-economic schools in the Dallas Independent School District. With an 85% Hispanic population, a majority of my students do not speak English and the boys especially have trouble asking to go to the restroom when they need it. This results in them having accidents and needing new pairs of underwear to change into. I try to give them any pair of underwear that I have, but most of them are for the older boys. I want to ask you, Donors Choose, to please aid in donating extra small and small underwear. These boys would feel much more comfortable coming to me after they’ve had an accident if I could give them a pair of underwear that would fit them better.
My Project
Pre-K and K students need underpants that'll fit their tiny bodies when in need of changing their wet/soiled clothes.
I want them to feel good about their clothes knowing they fit.
Underpants will be used on a regular basis. Students come into the clinic with soiled clothes and I only have large sizes available. Students will feel better knowing they are wearing underpants that fit their bodies. It will definitely make a difference in this kid's day by making them feel better wearing a size that fits instead of one that is too big or not wearing one at all. They always feel better when wearing clothes that fit them properly.
