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

We are requesting tap shoes to provide our students at our elementary school the opportunity to explore rhythm, coordination, and expression through dance. Tap shoes will enhance their learning by engaging them in hands-on, kinetic activities that promote both physical fitness and creativity. Dance allows students to build confidence, improve focus, and understand cultural art forms.

Our goal is to introduce students to the art of tap dancing, helping them discover their talents while developing essential life skills like discipline, teamwork, and perseverance.

With these tap shoes, students will be able to fully participate in performances, bringing energy and excitement to our cultural arts program.

Our school is home to a diverse and vibrant group of students who have a deep curiosity for learning and a passion for creative expression. Many of our students come from underprivileged backgrounds, and this project offers them a unique opportunity to explore the arts in ways they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. Their enthusiasm and eagerness to learn make them truly special and deserving of this support.
