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 hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out with an opportunity to support our passionate and talented students as they build their skills in creating custom gear, apparel, and items—not just for themselves but also for local businesses and school projects.

Last year, during the summer cleaning process, our equipment suffered significant damage, leaving us with broken 3D printers that are currently awaiting repair.

These devices are crucial to our program but are no longer functional enough to handle the demands of our projects. To ensure our students can continue their creative work and entrepreneurial ventures without interruption, we need your help to replace and enhance our workspace.

We are seeking donations to purchase: a work table for collaboration and production, work cabinet to securely store materials and tools, and manikin for designing and displaying custom apparel.

These items are essential for fostering a productive and inspiring environment where our students can thrive. Your generosity would not only help restore their creative momentum but also empower them to contribute to our community through innovative projects and services.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Together, we can provide our students with the tools they need to succeed and continue making a positive impact.

Thank you for considering this request. We are incredibly grateful for your support in helping our students shine.
