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

As we enter the colder months, I want to bring attention to an important need among my students. They come from diverse backgrounds, including immigrants, refugees, and local families, all sharing a common desire for safety, love, and education— in that order.

Sadly, some students are struggling to access warm winter clothing.

Proper outerwear is essential for their comfort and focus in school, but for families facing financial challenges, this need can be a significant burden.

I am reaching out for your support to help bridge this gap. Your donation will ensure that every student stays warm and feels included.

By contributing, you’re not just providing warmth; you’re creating an environment where all students feel supported and valued. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference in their academic journey and overall well-being.

Thank you for considering this cause and for your generosity. Together, we can ensure that all our students have what they need to thrive.
