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

Middle school is tough. Between navigating friendships, academics, and just growing up, my students have a lot on their plates. The last thing they need is to be distracted by something as small—but stressful—as a stain on their shirt, feeling self-conscious about body odor, or worrying about period products.

I want my classroom to be a space where my students can focus on learning, not on the little things that can make a big impact on their confidence.

That’s why I’m asking for comfort items like deodorant wipes, period products, stain-removing wipes, and snacks, along with classroom cleaning supplies (because let’s be real—middle schoolers can be messy) and a mini vacuum to help keep our space fresh and welcoming.

These small items can make a huge difference in my students’ daily lives. Your support will help create a classroom where they feel comfortable, cared for, and ready to learn!
