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 high school ELL students are working hard to create a vibrant school garden where they can explore science, sustainability, and teamwork through hands-on learning. However, without a reliable water source, maintaining the garden will be a challenge. A durable water hose will allow students to properly care for their plants, ensuring they thrive throughout the season.

This project is more than just watering plants—it’s about fostering responsibility, environmental stewardship, and scientific exploration.

Gardening helps students connect with nature, learn about ecosystems, and develop their language skills through discussions and observations. Your support will provide a crucial tool to keep our garden growing and our students engaged in meaningful, real-world learning experiences. Thank you for helping us cultivate knowledge, sustainability, and a love for science!
