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 bilingual classroom is a vibrant community of students eager to learn and grow despite the challenges they face. Many of our students come from low-income households, and the cold winter months in [insert location] can be especially difficult for families without adequate resources. A warm jacket is not just a necessity—it’s a source of comfort and security that allows students to focus on their education without worrying about the cold.
With your support, we can provide high-quality jackets to ensure that every student in our bilingual program feels cared for and ready to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
Your generosity will not only keep them warm but also help foster a sense of belonging and confidence, empowering them to embrace their potential. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of these deserving students!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
