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

Every child deserves the opportunity to learn in a clean and comfortable environment. Unfortunately, many of my students lack access to basic hygiene supplies or at the age where they do not realize that some products are necessary, which can lead to health issues, embarrassment, and difficulty concentrating.

With your support, I can purchase essential items such as hairbrushes, combs, hair ties, period products, deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, and facial cleansers.

These supplies will help students feel confident, healthy, and ready to succeed. By providing these necessities, we can create a more positive and supportive learning environment for all.
