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 amazing, and deserve to come to school feeling refreshed, nourished, and ready to learn. This project includes toiletry items, such as travel sized shampoo, body wash, deodorant, toothbrush and toothpaste sets to assure they have the care products necessary to do so. In addition, I am asking for scarves, water bottles, and nutritious snacks.

I intend to make care packages with these items, which will be available to all students who are in need throughout the year.

Every child should have access to these essential, basic items. Thank you for helping to take part in providing these for my wonderful students!
