Celebrating 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.
I teach a diverse group of K-5 students in a special education classroom at a low-income school. Each of my 20-25 students brings unique strengths and challenges to our learning community. Despite the obstacles they face, they demonstrate incredible resilience and a deep love for learning.
**My Project**
To provide my students with the best possible education, we need additional resources that cater to their individual needs. These materials will help create an engaging and supportive learning environment where every child can thrive.
**How Your Donation Will Help**
Your generous support will fund essential tools such as sensory equipment, adaptive learning materials, and interactive educational games. These resources will help my students develop critical skills, from literacy and numeracy to social-emotional learning. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in our classroom.
**Why This Project Matters**
In a low-income school, access to specialized resources is limited. By supporting this project, you are not only providing necessary materials but also showing my students that their education is important. Your help will enable them to reach their full potential and succeed in their academic journey.
Thank you for considering a donation to our classroom. Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated by me and my amazing students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
