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

Students often struggle with arriving to school on time to receive nutrition and breakfast. This coupled with students not arriving with packed lunches poses a challenge to their learning environment.

Engaging students in science projects requires focus which can be supported by nutritious snacks.

All students deserve to have a safe space to gain their education with minimal distractions. Ensuring students have fuel for their learning provides the necessary experiences to grow up happy and healthy.

Middle school is a critical point for their development. These items will support their growth.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
