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 a School Social Worker in the heart of the South Bronx seeking funding for snacks to give to my students who need to follow a gluten free diet.

At our school we have a few students who are gluten sensitive and it is a pervasive problem throughout the New York City Department of Education that the only gluten free lunch options for students are salad and fruit.

My gluten free students complain of boredom with lack of choices and feel left out of when students share snacks at their table in the lunchroom.

Having a supply of various gluten free snacks for these students to choose from and bring down to the lunchroom will give them alternatives to salad or fruits and add some interest to their meals at school.
