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

This project is to help support students who need supplies to help with managing their stress. Our previous projects have included boxing gear to help students find a healthy way to de-stress. Now we have recommitted to increasing the boxing program by supplying more students with the proper gear to participate.

We have also included other materials in this project such as stress balls to give students the individual materials needed for when they are not in school to help them manage their stress.

We hope all students will be better prepared to handle their stress.
