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 love working as an in- class support teacher with students of various disabilities. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement

The goal for this project is to provide a safe space for our AU students who learn differently.

Give them a means to communicate with the post-its and dry erase markers, promote positive interactions through snacks for token economy, and the rockers and cushions will help with sensory processing.

Ms. Allen Youens Elementary School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

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.
