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

It is so important that my students have a little pick-me-up when they need it, especially after P.E. or before practice. I try my best to have snacks in my room at all times, students will not be hungry during the day and can focus on a class instead of their hunger. Something like a simple granola bar can change their whole day.

I am so excited to be able to provide them with snacks thanks to supporters like you!

I try to always have water bottles in class since we cannot use the water fountains. I keep snacks and have them for whoever needs them especially those students who stay after class for sports. I am grateful to be able to help them out with this small gesture thanks to your donations. So many kids will benefit from this project and snacks.
