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

Many families can not afford school supplies. It can be difficult for students that are not able to come to school with new supplies like their peers.

I want all my students to start off on an equal footing by providing basic school supplies that everyone needs in my classroom.

I believe that providing my students with the necessary school supplies to be successful students is a great way to start their school experience. School supplies are an essential part of any classroom and student learning, so we count on you.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
