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 work at a middle school in Chicago's Southwest side. My goal to provide a safe, clean and welcoming environment to each and every student.

This year my students are so bright and kind but many lack funds for essential school supplies.

This donation will provide everyday school materials such as pens, folders and paper. These basic items will help bring success to my students' daily school life. It will also provide organizational supplies to keep the students and classroom clean and organized so effective teaching and learning can take place.

Ms. Dombrowski Irene Hernandez Middle School Grades 6-8

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
