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

Every student deserves the chance to thrive—not just academically, but emotionally and socially. By supporting this project, you’re helping provide essential supplies that will nurture students' emotional well-being, build their resilience, and teach them the skills they need to manage stress, communicate effectively, and build strong relationships.

Your donation will provide tools such as calming kits, emotion charts, mindfulness materials, and engaging activities to foster a positive, supportive classroom environment.

With your help, we can give students the foundation to succeed not only in school, but in life.

These materials are not just about coping—they are about growing. They empower students to recognize their emotions, work through conflict, and set goals for their personal development. Your contribution will help change lives, one student at a time.
