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

I kindly request your support in providing essential supplies that will help us celebrate and uplift our students throughout the school year. Items like snacks, birthday crowns, and small student goodies can make a big difference in fostering a positive and engaging classroom environment. These simple gestures not only boost morale but also show our students that they are valued and appreciated.

By contributing to this cause, you’ll help us create moments of joy and connection, making the school experience more rewarding and encouraging for every child.

Your generosity will allow us to continue celebrating their unique accomplishments and milestones in meaningful ways.
