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

This is the first year I am running our schools first Horticultural Club at my newly built school. We are starting from scratch with no supplies besides those donated by the generous donors of my last project. For this project I am asking for supplies to start a raised veggie garden in our schools courtyard.

If we receive the raised garden beds, students in Horticultural Club will have the chance to grow their own vegetables this spring.

It is also my hopes that they will then be able to work with our culinary arts students in providing fresh produce to be used in their cuisines!
