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

Our art program is designed to inspire creativity, foster self-expression, and build confidence in our young artists.

Your generous donation will help enhancing our art classroom with two essential items: a color printer and a painting drying rack.

These tools will significantly benefit our students and help us continue to provide a high-quality art education.

A color printer would allow us to print out vibrant images, resources, and student work. Whether it's printing out examples of famous artwork, reference images for projects, or students' digital art creations, having access to a color printer would greatly expand the resources available to our students and enhance their learning experience.

Our students often work with paints, and a drying rack is crucial for safely storing their work while it dries. Currently, space limitations in our classroom make it challenging to manage wet paintings, which can lead to accidental damage or smudging. A dedicated drying rack would ensure that our students' hard work is preserved and that their projects are given the proper time to dry.

Your generous donation of these items would make a tremendous difference in our classroom. It would not only improve the day-to-day operations of our art program but also show our students that their creative endeavors are valued and supported by the community.

We would be incredibly grateful for your support and would be delighted to recognize your generosity within our school community. Should you have any questions or wish to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you for considering our request. Your contribution would have a lasting impact on the students of MES and we would be honored to partner with you in nurturing the next generations.
