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

Our scholars are so inquisitive, filled with love and compassion. They brighten up my day and remind me everyday why I love being an educator. From the random “I love yous” to the quirky “hey pretty woman” comments, they are bliss. When I think of them, I yearn to aid in their improvement, empowerment and encouragement.

My Project

Being able to provide my students with grade level and diverse reading material will help create a love for reading within each and every one of them. Most times children do not like to read because they have nothing to read. With your help I can ensure our future doctors, teachers, lawyers, government officials, managers, athletes and entrepreneurs are ready for what it takes to be successful. Let’s keep them entertained and educated. I have so much passion and love for the students I service, thank you in advance for your help.
