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

As a second-year teacher, I want to make sure that my students have the necessary supplies to start the new school year. I am asking for your help to create my classroom.

Having the help of donors to gather supplies, such as pencils, erasers, highlighters, and more, will benefit my class greatly.

Please help me give my students the education that they deserve. By providing my students with the supplies they need, they will be able to reach their full potential and succeed. I appreciate your consideration in donating to my classroom project. Hooray to an exciting new year!
