After School Support for Multicultural Justice Club

Help me give my students a safe place to stay after school. Many are living in temporary shelters and prefer to stay at school if possible. This includes eating, using computers, or playing games.

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

Multicultural Justice Club is a club of mostly immigrant students who meet after school to plan school events, create artwork, and acquire information related to immigration.

Another reason behind the club is that many of these students like to stay at school as long as they can because many don't enjoy going home to temporary shelters.

Help them enjoy staying after school with a fridge and microwave for food, some snacks, headphones for computers, and games to play to entertain themselves. At the moment, students don't always have a way to keep food for after school, and sometimes don't have many means of staying entertained. Thanks for helping!
