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 we prepare for another exciting school year, I believe that providing adequate school supplies such as pencils, book bags, pencil sharpeners, sticky notes, erasers, construction paper and Kleenex is crucial in empowering our students to thrive and reach their full potential. I teach Reading and writing to amazing 4th grade students and last year we ran out of school supplies before the year ended.

Many of our students face financial challenges that make it difficult for them to afford the necessary school supplies.

Education is the key to unlocking a brighter future for our student’s young minds, and I am committed to making a positive impact on their learning experience. Your donation can ensure that every student has equal access to the tools they need to succeed. The students and I would be so grateful for your donation.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
