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

I teach World Cultures and Languages . As I prepare for the 2025 school year, I’m reaching out to ask for your support in helping provide essential school supplies for my incredible students—many of whom are multilingual learners from countries such as Ghana, Afghanistan, Haiti, Brazil, and Ecuador.

These students bring vibrant cultural experiences and languages into our classroom, and I am committed to offering them a welcoming, supportive, and engaging environment where they can thrive.

With your help, I can ensure they have the materials needed for interactive lessons that celebrate global cultures and strengthen language learning.

Your donation—whether it’s notebooks, art supplies, folders, pencils, or educational tools—will make a direct impact in creating a classroom where every student feels empowered and equipped to succeed.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to invest in the future of our diverse and resilient learners. I would be happy to provide more information or work with you to coordinate the donation.
