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

I love the way my students come to school every day ready to learn. The supplies will give my students the chance to do their work without the worry that their parents cannot afford to purchase them on their behalf. My students will use these resources for everyday use to allow them to learn and not have to worry about having to borrow or the shame of asking others for supplies. They can work on their writing assignments and complete their visual demonstrations using their artistic renderings.

My students will understand that there are people out there who truly care and want to help others like them.

your generosity will open their hearts to pay it forward when they are presented with the opportunity to help others throughout the community and beyond.
