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.
My Project
My students are amazing and are learning to care for others. We have been talking about ways that students can impart change within their communities, and my students see that some of their peers are experiencing food insecurity. They want to start doing community service to help the families of our school community. The students want to make sure that students who are hungry in our school can have food to take from a pantry that they will create.
Students have been learning about what food would be good to keep in a pantry that does not go bad quickly.
My students will be in charge of the packages, sorting the food, organizing the pantry, and advertising that the food will be available to all students in the school community who would like a meal due to the hunger that they are experiencing.
My students are requesting cereal, canned soups, snacks, and oatmeal. Thank you so very much for supporting this project.
