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

Hello! I’m a third-grade teacher in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Our classroom is a vibrant, diverse community where each student's unique background is valued. To support our students' learning and overall well-being, we’re seeking your help to provide a variety of nutritious snacks.

Providing snacks helps keep our students energized and focused, which is essential for their academic success.

By ensuring that every student has access to snacks that meet their needs, we create an environment where they can fully engage in their lessons and perform their best. Our goal is to enhance their learning experience and ensure that no child is distracted by hunger.

Our students are incredibly special; they bring resilience, enthusiasm, and a love for learning to our classroom each day. Despite facing various challenges, they come to school ready to engage and grow. Your support will help us remove barriers to their focus and learning, allowing them to thrive both academically and personally.

Thank you for considering our project. Your contribution will make a significant difference in our students' educational journey, helping them stay nourished and ready to learn.
