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

Hi! It's my second year teaching first grade in south central Los Angeles. My first year teaching in a low-income, minority community taught me so much about the love and passion needed to teach. Your donation will significantly impact their educational journey, fostering a love for learning from the beginning.

With your generosity, we can equip our classroom with basic supplies, age-appropriate books, classroom materials, and snacks and toys for enjoyment.

No matter the amount, every contribution will empower our first-grade superstars and set them on the path to success. I added basic classroom supplies that were often needed as well as snacks and toys to aid in the fun students should have in school! I also added a TPT card to support creating fun, SEL material for students. And a teacher wagon, to help me in transporting it to them!
