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

Hello everyone! This is my first time creating a DonorsChoose project, and I decided to give it a try to help my amazing K-5 artists gain access to inspiring art materials.

I teach art on a cart in a Title I school district at two different buildings, one of which is a Community School location.

I serve approximately 600 students in a weekly cycle. Unfortunately, funding for art supplies beyond the bare necessities isn’t available and students would greatly benefit from having access to materials that can enrich their art making experiences. Items such as Crayola Twistables, permanent markers, gel pens, metallic markers, crayons, glue sticks, pencils, and traceable stencils will help enhance their time spent in art class and amplify the quality of their work. When a student uses great products to express their ideas, their work shines. They feel proud of what they’ve made and desire to continue to create in the future. That’s a feeling I want all my students to encounter this upcoming school year.

Ultimately my goal as an art teacher is to help foster a love of art, and with the help of your donations we can elevate the in school art experiences for two buildings of incredible students who deserve equal opportunities. Thank you for taking the time to consider donating today and thank you to all who choose to support us!
