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

Over the past couple of years I have been blessed with several novel study sets and classroom read aloud books from Donors Choose. I would love to add some sturdy and durable storage containers to my classroom to help keep these books safe, secure, and in tip top shape for years to come.

High quality, sturdy storage boxes will help me keep my books safe so they will be easy to access and free from damage for now and the future!

Thank you so very much for considering donating to my classroom. These boxes will be greatly appreciated and put to great use!
