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
I am writing to seek support for a program that aims to empower parents and provide enriching experiences for their children.
Program Overview: The "Raising Highly Capable Kids" program is dedicated to helping parents become more effective in raising their children by enhancing their parenting skills and fostering positive family dynamics.
This program spans ten weekly sessions, during which parents will receive guidance on various aspects of child development, effective communication, and strategies for their kids.
While parents engage in educational sessions, we understand the importance of providing a safe, stimulating, and educational environment for their children. To ensure that the children benefit from this experience as well, the students will be supervised and engaged in activities that promote their social-emotional development and creativity. Teachers will supervise and engage children in age-appropriate play and activities, ensuring their safety and well-being. We intend to provide snacks to keep the children nourished throughout the sessions. Our team will incorporate social-emotional skill-building activities into the children's program to help them develop important life skills. We plan to offer art supplies such as watercolor paints, brushes, and paper to encourage creativity and self-expression among the children.
To make this program a success, for both parents and students, we are seeking financial support to cover the costs of snacks and art supplies.
Your generous contribution will not only enable us to provide a supportive and educational environment for children but also empower parents to become more capable caregivers, ultimately benefiting families and our community as a whole.
We are confident that your support will make a significant difference in the lives of both parents and children participating in our "Raising Highly Capable Kids" program. Your investment in the future of our community's families is greatly appreciated.
