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

Trenton, New Jersey, (and this is amazing!) is a sanctuary city. Students from nations all over the world immigrate to Trenton with their families. The city, although economically poor in many areas, is rich in cultures and heritage from all corners of the world. We have a growing population of Hispanic immigrants, most speaking their native language, Spanish. Many of our students, both native and non-native to Trenton, struggle to meet basic needs each day. This means that it is extra important for us to provide them with both essential items that they can access at any time and exciting extracurricular opportunities. Their social/emotional well-being and mental health depend on knowing that they are free to use basic needs items that will not run out and that they have coaches willing to support them as they strive to meet their goals!

The relay race items I am requesting will provide our track and field students with the necessary items to set up our outdoor wellness relay race.

These relay race materials will go a long way in ensuring our students have exciting extracurricular sporting opportunities that support their social-emotional learning and mental health needs. I am requesting these materials for students in need who have just arrived in our country. Students will be able to use them during our outdoor events!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
