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

Our community is blessed with a unique diversity that is worthy of celebration.

The annual school’s Multicultural Festival is an important event that promotes cultural understanding and unity within our school community.

It is an opportunity for students to showcase their heritage and traditions and for the school community to come together and celebrate the richness of our backgrounds. We are asking for your support to help cover the cost of student costumes and decorations. Your donations will help ensure that all students have the opportunity to participate in this meaningful event and that it is a success for everyone. Please, support our Multicultural Festival to be a resounding success!

Student Costumes:

One of the key elements of the Multicultural Festival is the student costumes. We want to provide our students with the opportunity to represent their cultural background in a meaningful and authentic way. However, many of these costumes can be quite costly, and many families may not have the financial means to purchase them. We are asking for your support to help cover the cost of costumes for our students.

Another critical aspect of the Multicultural Festival is the decorations. We want to create a festive and welcoming atmosphere that reflects the diverse cultures represented at our school. This includes things like flags, banners, and other cultural decorations. We need your help to purchase these decorations and make the event a success. Thank you for your support.
