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

Utilizing the materials & items to provide a better classroom & office setting. My students for this program are young girls learning to reach their essence. They will continue to use their coping strategies to manage their stress & other feelings. We will appreciate all of the donations that are given to us for this program and hope to expand it more the next school year. This would be our very first Girls Inc. in our school and we want to make sure that we provide our youths with the supplies they need, again we appreciate it very much.
