it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
What I love most about my students is their creativity, resilience, and excitement to try new things. This school year, our affirmation t-shirt project was a huge hit! Students lit up with pride as they designed shirts with encouraging words and messages that reflected their strengths. The process gave them a sense of ownership, boosted their confidence, and created a powerful connection between self-expression and emotional well-being.
With your support, I hope to build on the success of this project by providing more t-shirts so even more students can participate next school year.
Each shirt becomes a wearable reminder of their value, and the act of creating it helps reinforce positive thinking and self-worth. These projects not only promote creativity but also support social-emotional learning, helping students internalize affirmations and carry them throughout their day.
Your donation will help me continue this meaningful work and ensure that each student has a chance to design, create, and wear a message that inspires them. Thank you for believing in the power of positivity and self-expression!
