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

I am reaching out to request your support for an exciting opportunity to further enhance the environment within our Assessment and Stabilization Program (ASP). As we strive to provide the best possible care and guidance for the youth under our care, we’ve identified an essential need to update and diversify the seating arrangements in our spaces.

We are seeking funding to provide alternative seating options such as beanbags, butterfly chairs, and standing student desks.

These simple yet transformative resources will allow us to create a flexible, comfortable, and inclusive learning environment that better supports the unique needs of each student.

Why does this matter? Many of the youth we serve face emotional and behavioral challenges that can hinder their engagement in traditional settings. By incorporating flexible seating, we can help foster greater focus, self-expression, and emotional regulation, while also encouraging the development of essential social and academic skills. These changes will allow students to choose the seating arrangements that work best for their learning style, resulting in higher engagement and improved outcomes.

Your generous donation can make a lasting difference in these young people's lives by helping to create a space where they feel more comfortable, valued, and ready to thrive. We believe these small adjustments will lead to big improvements in their overall well-being and success.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to directly impact the future of the youth in ASP.
