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

We would like to give our students a magical under the sea experience for out Broadway Jr. Play. Just like my other projects, they are soley dedicated to putting on the most beautiful play. These balloons will help us create a theme that is interactive with audience. This play at the end of the year is an experience our students and families wait all year for. Please help us celebrate all the hardwork our students put in throughout the year. Whats the best way to celebrate than with balloons. Thank you!
