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

Many students cannot afford the basic school supplies that they need in order to be successful in school. Some of my students this year have had to use old or reused supplies from previous school years or from older siblings.

Help me provide my students with basic school supplies so they can be successful throughout the school year!

Having new school supplies will boost my students self esteem and ensuring they feel good about their learning. Students will be able to thrive and feel confident knowing they have fresh new supplies!
