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

Help me give my students snacks during our first, after school, digital painting Art Club. The students have breakfast by 7:30 and lunch by 1pm. They are ready for a snack at 3pm if they are staying afterschool and don't get home until 5pm. A few students could bring a snack, but many just don't have one.

This project allows me to make sure no one is left hungry and that all students can feel their best in the late afternoon.

The club will help them build their sense of community through socializing with peers who share the same interests. The snacks will draw the students together to eat, talk and connect as a group before the art activities start. They can share their latest digital creations and really develop their sense of belonging while bonding and spending time together.
