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

Imagine a child eager to learn but unable to focus due to discomfort caused by ill-fitting or worn-out shoes. Unfortunately, this is a reality for many of our children children who face challenges accessing basic necessities. By contributing to our project, you can help alleviate this obstacle, ensuring that each child arrives at school comfortably equipped with a pair of sneakers that fit.

Quality footwear not only enhances a child's physical well-being but also fosters a positive and conducive learning environment.

Comfortable shoes enable children to participate in physical activities, promoting a healthier lifestyle. New shoes help increase their overall self-esteem and influence their academic performance and social interactions.

My students are resilient, creative, caring, and loving little people who deserve to have at least one pair of shoes that fit.
