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

Our 5th grade classroom is full of bright minds and even brighter imaginations! My students are curious, creative, and eager to express themselves—but we’re currently limited by the basic materials we have on hand. With your help, we can turn our classroom into a space where ideas come to life through art.

We’re asking for donations to provide essential art supplies like colored pencils, drawing paper, markers, and more.

These tools will allow students to dive into projects that support not only artistic growth, but also tie into science, social studies, math and language arts lessons in meaningful and visual ways.

Art is how students learn to communicate, build confidence, and explore their world!
