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

The students at my school love gathering together and singing. In order to do this in a large space comfortably, we need the floor cushions and a PA system to showcase our students beautiful voices. The students really would appreciate a comfy place to sit while enjoying the music they can hear clearly over a new PA system. These students keep going and giving their attention and talents even though they sit uncomfortably without being able to clearly hear.

It will definitely speak to their hearts for this project to be funded.

They will be able to focus and enjoy activities in the multipurpose room where sitting on the floor is required a lot of the time. They feel proud to know that they have received something that they can say thank you for in the form of a letter.
