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

Our project is to provide essential supplies to students, ensuring a smooth start to the new school year. The focus is on two key areas: promoting hygiene through the provision of Kleenex tissues to combat germs and combating hunger.

Students will be equipped with the essential supplies needed to embark on a successful academic journey while emphasizing the importance of hygiene and hunger.

Project Benefits:

*Improved hygiene practices: By providing Kleenex, students will have access to a convenient and effective tool for wiping away germs, reducing the risk of illness and absences.

*Equal opportunities: Ensuring that all students have access to necessary supplies creates a level playing field and eliminates potential barriers to learning.
