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 materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a home. In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door!

Your donations will not only provide an equitable education for all students, but demonstrate to our scholars what a community does for one another.

The items listed on this wishlist will provide my special education class with a warm, welcoming environment, where they will learn and grow each day. Each item was picked with the thought of making our classroom into a home and providing a sense of safety for my students.

There is nothing I love more than being a teacher and shaping the lives of those who will lead us in future generations. Any donations are welcomed and appreciated! From my classroom family, we thank you for thinking of us and bettering our environment!
