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

The our middle school Student Government Association wants your help creating a student-run community pantry. The poverty average in the city of North Miami is 19.2%, much higher than the national average which is 11.4%. Inevitably, this affects our students and makes it difficult to learn. By creating a school community pantry, students will have access to food throughout the day should they be facing food scarcity at home.

A school community pantry helps alleviate this issue by allowing students to grab a snack throughout the school day should they need it.

Ms. Varona North Miami Middle School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
