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

Nap time is an important part of the day for Pre-k and with a new preschool program coming in we are short on many things. My goal is to have a comfortable and safe place for them sleep or have quiet time. I want them to be able to nap and reset their minds and bodies as this will help for growth and development. At this time our upcoming preschool kids do not have enough mats to help them comfortably rest. This is why I am reaching out to the community to help provide these necessary items. I want to make sure all my students have a mat and that no one is left out.

With your help, I will be able to supply mats to students who do not have one.

Your donation will help this new Preschool classroom have the ability to provide nap time and mats for everyone.
