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

As we approach the middle of our school year so many of our supplies have become warn out and depleted. In order to succeed successfully it takes supplies. I want for my students to be able to hit the milestones to complete the rest of this school year with success.

Our crayons and our paper supplies as well as our covers for our chairs has been provided thru hand me downs or even reused supplies.

With so many of our parents struggling I am asking for your donation to help my students complete this school year with success. Please help us fund these new supplies so that my students will be able to have a fresh new way of digging for the creativity needed to make them successfully finish their school year.
