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

By supporting our project, you can help us provide access to a variety of reading games that cater to different learning styles and interests. From phonics puzzles to storytelling adventures, these games will not only make learning fun, but will also, help our students develop essential literacy skills that will benefit them for a lifetime.

Your donation will make a direct impact on the academic success of our students and ensure that they have the tools and resources they need to excel in reading.

Together, we can empower our students to become confident and proficient readers.
