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 school is a Title 1 school with a large population of newcomers. Many of them are English Language Learners who many times struggle to bring snacks. In order for them to begin opening up to their new environment, we like to provide them a variety of snacks.

We would like to provide our students access to a microwave since some of them bring their meals but have no place to warm it up.

We are extremely appreciative to all who take the time to read this post and collaborate with us. We are very grateful for your donations.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
