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

Dear Donors,

I’m reaching out to ask for your support for my DonorsChoose project, which aims to provide everyday essential items for my classroom.

Many of the supplies we use daily, such as seating, storage, and learning tools, have worn out due to regular use, making it challenging to maintain an engaging and organized learning environment. Your generous donations will help us replace these worn-out items, ensuring that my students have the resources they need to thrive.

The folding chair will allow students to find flexible seating that is comfortable for them. It can be placed in our library or calming corner. My students need facial tissue for their runny noses and coughs. The candy will serve to motivate my students to focus on their learning.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference in creating a welcoming and effective space for learning. Thank you for your support!
