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 seeking funding to bring to life "From Senses to Art: Exploring Creativity and Tools Together", a unique program that combines counseling practices with sensory tools and creative expression. This initiative provides a safe and engaging space where participants can explore their emotions, reduce stress, and develop mindfulness through hands-on arts and crafts activities. With your support, we can provide essential materials, sensory tools, and professional guidance, making this program accessible to those who need it most. Together, we will empower individuals to unlock their creativity, build emotional resilience, and discover practical coping strategies for everyday challenges.
