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

Our band students show up early, stay late, and give their all—day in and day out. Whether it’s before-school rehearsals, long weekend competitions, or late-night performances, they are committed to excellence and to representing our school with pride. This project is designed to support their dedication by providing snacks and breakfast options that help fuel their bodies and minds throughout the season.

Many of our students arrive for practice without having had anything to eat.

When competition days stretch from early morning into the night, hunger can quickly become a barrier to focus, energy, and performance. With your support, we can ensure that no student has to push through rehearsal or take the field on an empty stomach. Your generosity helps us care for the whole student—not just their musical talents. Something as simple as a granola bar or a breakfast sandwich can make a world of difference to these hardworking young musicians.
