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

There are very basic necessities to make a classroom run effectively - namely, bleach wipes, tissues, and pencils, to name a few. Your donation will help to alleviate this burden, not only from our parents, but from me, too!

I'll be moving to teaching a new subject this year, so having these basic supplies will allow me to spend my money focusing on the subject matter supplies we'll need.

I have some of the best and brightest students there are! I would love for them to show up on day one with a smile, knowing that they will have had kind strangers who donated many of the items they'll need to start the year off right!
