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

Girls Crafting club to learn a variety of crafting skills that students could use in their lives. Students can learn cross stitching and sewing with the right tools. These skills will enable students to learn a trade that can be used in their future either with their own business or personal life.

My students are full of wonder and lack the resources that is needed to give them a chance to experience life.

Giving them an opportunity to learn a skill or trade that they can use in future endeavor but will also teach them patience.

Material are needed to fund a Girls Crafting Club. The Items contributed can be used to start the crafting program.
