Help me give my students a rolling cooler, utility cart, cash box, and dry erase board so they can run a mobile snack stand to raise money for dances, student incentives, and community events.

Celebrating 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
Our Student Council is made up of passionate, hardworking students who want to make school more engaging for everyone. They plan dances, lead spirit days, and create ways for students to connect and feel valued. With your help, we’d like to launch a mobile snack and water stand that we can use at school games, family events, and fundraisers. To make this happen, we’re requesting a rolling cooler, a utility cart, a locking cash box, and a dry erase board for signage and organization.
These tools will give our students real-world experience in leadership, money management, communication, and teamwork.
Running this stand will help them build confidence and understand how small efforts can create big changes in their school community. Every dollar raised will go toward student incentives, community-building events, and inclusive experiences that make our school a better place to learn and grow. Our students are incredibly driven—they just need the right resources to turn their big ideas into action.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
