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

Providing early exposure to STEM concepts is essential for sparking curiosity and building a foundation for future success.

We are seeking donations of coding materials, such as interactive toys, kits, or simple programming tools, that will allow our Pre-K students to explore and develop foundational skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

These materials will give our youngest learners the chance to engage with coding in a hands-on, playful way, nurturing their problem-solving abilities, creativity, and critical thinking skills.

By supporting this initiative, you’ll help open doors to STEM learning at a young age, empowering our students to dream big and develop skills that will benefit them for years to come. Your contribution will make a direct difference in their educational journey and inspire them to reach for new heights.
