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

I am reaching out to you today with a request for help to support our classroom. As a dedicated teacher, I am committed to creating an interactive and engaging learning experience for my students. However, our school's outdated technology is hindering our ability to do so.

One area in particular where we are struggling is with our media projects.

Our current laptop is very old and cannot support the editing programs necessary for us to create high-quality podcasts and videos. Without access to proper equipment, our students are missing out on valuable opportunities to develop their creativity and critical thinking skills.

That's why I am asking for your help in raising funds to purchase a new laptop for our classroom. With your donation, we can create an interactive learning center that will allow our students to create and edit podcasts and videos. This will not only improve their technical skills but also help them to communicate and express themselves more effectively.

Your support will make a huge difference in the lives of our students and help us to continue to provide a high-quality education. Thank you for your consideration
