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 have felt the appreciation since I have started working at Zablocki. The children have appreciated what I do for them when they are injured or not feeling well. Unfortunately the district does not provide us with supplies that will help our children stay in school. Some children just need a cough drop or peppermint or snack to help them stay in school. Others just need feminine supplies. Students who leave the building lose out on their education. I want to be able to provide what is available to me so that they can stay in school and get an education.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
