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

Please help us fund our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) robotics program at our school. Our school serves inner-city students, K-8th grade. The goal of the project is to instill a love of learning for the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and math and give our students an opportunity to learn and compete with their affluent peers.

Your donation will help provide a valuable resource to these children that may not have the opportunity otherwise to code and design robots.

Please consider donating today to make an impact in the lives of the leaders of tomorrow.
