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
Our dedicated group of students is passionate about learning and excelling in mathematics, and we are reaching out to you with a humble request for your support.
As we embark on this academic journey, one of our primary needs is a steady supply of pencils.
While pencils may seem like a small and mundane requirement, they are an essential tool for our students to work through mathematical problems, take notes, and express their ideas on paper. Unfortunately, not all our students can access these essential supplies at home, and our school budget does not always cover the necessary classroom materials.
This is where your generosity can make a significant difference. Your donation, no matter how big or small, will directly impact our students' ability to engage with math effectively. With an adequate supply of pencils, they can focus on their lessons, complete assignments, and participate actively in class discussions without worrying about running out of essential writing tools.
If you decide to support our math class, your donation will go towards purchasing high-quality pencils that will last throughout the school year. We believe students with the necessary materials to succeed are more motivated, confident, and better equipped to excel in their studies.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
