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

With all your gracious donations we will purchase supplies/materials for our FIRST CyberArts Studio Academy High School (CASA) Cinco de Mayo celebration. We want to shed a light on our diverse English Language Learners' and celebrate our schools highest nationality and ethnic group. For Cinco de Mayo we want to give CASA its own Quinceañera with Mexican treats, music, performances, games, activities and food! With your help we can successfully cultivate a safe space for our first Cinco de Mayo celebration and have our students feel seen and appreciated.

Thank you!
