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

With less COVID restrictions this year, we would like to bring back during and after school activities at High School in full force!

Many of our students come from low-income families, and McKee is their home away from home.

We are looking to provide our students with a variety of snacks and drinks for all events during and after school, especially their lunch periods. We hope to make our students feel even more at home, with a packed pantry!

Any share or donation is greatly appreciated!
