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 students I teach rarely have time to be a kid! This donation would help my Title I students be able to get outside and play, with friends.

They come from neighborhoods where it isn’t safe to play outside, so we need to make the time they can get outside much more meaningful!

I plan for students to use these materials daily, to help student a grow communication skills and get more exercise!

This is a great group of students and they deserve the best! Thank you for being willing to help them!
