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

My students are imaginative, vibrant, and full of creative energy. They light up when they have the opportunity to express themselves through art. However, we’re often limited by the lack of basic art supplies in our classroom.

With your support, I hope to provide markers, crayons, watercolor paints, pens, paper, and a bag for transport the supplies for outdoors learning to my students to open the door to endless creativity and learning.

These tools will allow my students to illustrate their stories, bring classroom projects to life, and engage in hands-on learning that supports emotional expression and fine motor skills.

Your donation will help build a classroom where creativity isn’t just encouraged, it’s fully supported.

Thank you for helping bring more color and imagination into my students’ lives!
