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

Honoring moms—especially for students—has a bunch of benefits that go way beyond just being a "nice thing to do." It builds a mindset of gratitude, which studies show can boost mental health and reduce stress. Honoring moms encourages empathy, humility, and responsibility—key traits that benefit students in school and life. When students recognize and honor someone who sacrificed for them, it helps them understand what selflessness looks like, which can inspire them to do the same for others.

Unfortunately, our students, are unable to do this themselves.

Personalizing t-shirts would make this lesson come true. These t-shirts are a necessity for this to happen.
