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 Students

My students live in an inner-city struggling through issues of language barriers, crime, violence, and poverty, but despite it all, they foster and maintain a high level of hope and pride in their city.

The culture of the community is highly creative and expressive in many aspects of the arts, from visual arts to theater, from music to dance.

The people and students here support and embrace the creative arts unlike many wealthier areas, and the people shine very brightly because of it.

My Project

My students will be using the watercolor paper, drawing inks, and paintbrushes to create bright, colorful portraits. They will now have the opportunity to have a wide variety of color choices and have access to high-quality supplies.

We will use colorful inks and brushes to illustrate the students' family members, friends, and favorite entertainers, actors, and athletes.

Your generous donation allows my classroom the ability to replenish inks and watercolor paper while purchasing new colors and much needed pencils and brushes.

Thank you for taking the time and donating to my classroom and students as they may not have the means to use these quality materials.
