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

At our school, we believe in creating a safe and nurturing space for all our students. We are reaching out to you with a heartfelt request to help us enhance our counseling sessions by donating desks, journals, and snacks for our students in need.

Our goal is simple: to provide the best possible support for our students, especially those facing challenges like ADHD.

By donating standing desks, journals, and snacks, you can make a real difference in the lives of these students and help them thrive both academically and emotionally.

Imagine the impact your donation could have a standing desk giving a student with ADHD the focus they need, a journal providing an outlet for self-expression, and a nutritious snack fueling productive discussions during counseling sessions. Your generosity can truly transform the way these students experience support and care at our school.

We invite you to be a part of this meaningful cause and help us create a positive and inclusive environment for all our students. Your donation, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and will go a long way in supporting the well-being and success of our students.
