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

Hello! Three years after moving to a new campus, our teachers and students finally finished constructed a brand new chicken coop and outdoor enclosed chicken yard! We just purchased our first 9 chickens and our students are so excited!

Help us finish out this project by donating to this campaign for a shelving unit to store chicken supplies in our shed, hoses to be able to reach the chicken coop from the nearest spigot, outdoor solar powered lights for security, and finally some bulk meal worms for protein.

We want to make sure our chickens are safe over our very hot Texas summers. Thank you!
