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 of the students in our class come from low income families, and sometimes it is difficult for the families to buy the specialized shoes that can often be expensive but necessary for their child.

Through your donation to our classroom you will be providing the students in our classroom the shoes they need to keep them feeling confident and comfortable!

Many of our students need new shoes and our class is hoping donors like you will be able to help us! If our project is filled we will be able to keep our students happy, clean and comfortable with new, clean and well fitting shoes.
