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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

For my students, the Reverberate Festival in Chicago, Illinois, is a fantastic opportunity to showcase their skills and hard work on a large stage. Sadly, not everyone can play an instrument, but with your assistance, all of my students will be able to perform. The first step is to purchase additional instruments so our students can have instruments that work properly and to also have an instrument to use. There are 10 students that will not be able to perform but with your love and support , we will change the narrative for our students.
