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

My students come from diverse and underserved communities, and many of them face economic hardships at home. The impact of these circumstances extends into the classroom, affecting their access to essential learning materials. As a result, our students are often at a disadvantage when it comes to exploring their potential and nurturing their talents.

To address this pressing issue, I am seeking your generous support in acquiring much-needed school supplies for our classroom.

We are asking for simple things such as colored pencils, little classroom rewards to encourage learning, backpacks, and outdoor games for recess.

Ms. Roma McNamara Elementary School Grades 3-5

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.
