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

Our school is putting on a showcase of songs from the Disney movie The Lion King! I want our students to look as good as they sound! Please help our school by providing students with jungle themed decorations and hair props. This semester I have a whole new group of students and it is most of our students first time doing anything in the performing arts! As a school we try to incorporate all cultures and within the next few months we are talking about African culture! By providing our students with costumes we are able to give them the opportunity to not only look good but dive into the culture and environment of Africa. We are so excited to preform our Lion King showcase! Thank you for your consideration and donation!
