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

Pencils, markers, and erasers are essential tools we use every day to support learning in the classroom.

The goal of this project is to ensure that my students, many of whom come from low socioeconomic backgrounds, have consistent access to the basic supplies they need to succeed.

No child should have to worry about where they’ll get a pencil to complete their homework or an eraser to fix their work.

My students are eager to learn and show up every day with determination and resilience, rising above challenges with hopeful hearts. By providing these simple yet critical materials, you’re helping remove barriers to learning and giving each child the tools to thrive. Your support means more than just school supplies. It represents care, encouragement, and the belief that every child deserves a chance to succeed.
