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

In 3rd grade, students learn about fossils, animal evolution, plant evolution, and weather patterns. While our current STEM curriculum has great lessons, there is truly nothing more impactful than having students work on hands-on, real-life examples.

This year, we can inspire dozens of students to fall in love with STEM by providing them with the right tools.

Your generosity will help our students become experienced scientists excavating and examining fossils. They will have the freedom to examine the intricate details of different specimens using microscopes as they learn about animal and plant evolution. They will learn more deeply about the water cycle and weather patterns all because of your kind donation.

There is truly a great passion for learning about STEM in all of our students. You can be the person that brings this passion to life today! Please consider donating and inspiring the future STEM leaders of tomorrow.
