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 am an RSP teacher who helps students from grades K-5th. We have a weekly reward day called Fun Friday which needs a little upgrade. We currently have a few board games that are outdated and have missing pieces. It would be great to upgrade to much better and more modern pieces. These new games will make our Fun Friday experience much better as they are fun and engaging. Your donation would help build a substantial quantity of educational games for our Fun Friday. My students look forward to Fun Friday every week, this project would make this day even better.
