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

Due to the pandemic, our Collaborative Elementary School (founded 7 years ago) has had only one in-person graduation. This year, we will have our second! Our 5th graders have showed us time and time again that they are so resilient and able to overcome so many challenges and they deserve a special celebration! However, we have a ton of expenses to cover to make their graduation extraordinary including but not limited to: graduation cap and gowns, t-shirts, a senior trip, and yearbooks.

Instead of asking for each student and family to pay for their own yearbook during these trying times, we would love to be able to gift one to each student in our class.

Our school is like a home for many of our students and staff. When you walk the halls of Fort Hill, you truly feel the love. The Staff refer to each other as our "Fort Hill Family". The memories made at our school, will last a lifetime for these special kids. With your generosity and support, we would be able to give these students something they could cherish forever!
