Provide Better Tools to My Low-income Students and Asylum Seekers.

Help me give my students a better experience in the classroom. I would like to have a good computer to prepare my students' lessons and projects. My computer was stolen, the one I'm currently using is old and slow.

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

We want to thank you in advance for your collaboration. Our computer was stolen, and we've been working with an old, very slow one. The product I selected will help my students by providing them with the additional tools I need to prepare better lessons and projects. Our school struggles to find the right equipment to better serve our students. Our students come from low-income neighborhoods and from all over the world.

THANK YOU for your generous donation for the laptop.

I am very grateful; but most importantly, our student will be able to receive better quality lessons. We greatly appreciate your generosity and support for our school program.
