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

At a large middle school grappling with financial hardships, the upcoming graduation ceremony is both a milestone and a challenge. Many students lack the necessary resources to fully participate in this significant event, underscoring the need for essential supplies to navigate unforeseen circumstances as they prepare to graduate. In unexpected situations, the ability to act swiftly is crucial, as delays can lead to escalating issues!

Providing these supplies ensures that all students can celebrate their achievements with dignity and pride, regardless of financial constraints.

This support not only addresses immediate needs but also fosters a sense of community and accomplishment among the graduates.
