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

I am writing on behalf of our school to request your support for an important initiative: providing middle school students with the life-saving skills of CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation). Specifically, we are seeking donations to purchase CPR training devices that will allow students to practice hands-on techniques during their lessons.

At our school, we are committed to preparing our students not just academically, but also with practical skills that can make a difference in emergencies.

We believe that teaching CPR at an early age can help instill a sense of responsibility and preparedness in our students. However, the effectiveness of CPR training is directly tied to the ability to practice these skills in a safe, supportive environment with the proper equipment.

With your generous support, we will be able to purchase CPR manikins and related training devices that will allow students to practice chest compressions, rescue breaths, and other critical techniques. The hands-on practice these devices provide is essential for building confidence and competence. Our goal is to ensure that every student has the opportunity to learn CPR, so they are equipped to respond in an emergency.

Your contribution will have a lasting impact on our community, as these students may one day save a life through their knowledge of CPR. Donations of any size are greatly appreciated and will directly fund the purchase of these essential training devices.

Thank you for considering this important request. Together, we can equip our students with the skills they need to act decisively and save lives.
