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

Hello, all! Working in a Title I school in a low socioeconomic neighborhood always presents its challenges. Getting funding for the arts is no different.

With this project, I’ll be able to provide essential art supplies for the kids in my volunteer led club.

These supplies will be able to stay with the school so that the students for years to come can benefit and enjoy the arts!

Everyone should be able to express their artistic side. Children are no exception to this, and they should definitely not have to worry about obtaining extra supplies for the year.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
