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

As a kindergarten teacher, I know how important it is for young learners to feel safe, comfortable, and inspired. A vibrant classroom environment encourages creativity, focus, and learning. That's why I’m asking for a new rug that will help transform our classroom into a warm and inviting space for my students. The rug will provide a designated area for circle time, group activities, and cozy reading moments.

With your support, we can give these little learners a place to explore, grow, and develop the love for learning.

Your donation will make a big difference in their educational journey by creating a space where they feel engaged, calm, and excited to learn every day!

Thank you for helping make our classroom a brighter, more welcoming place.
