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

With a new and growing program, I want to bring one more sewing machine into our theater classroom. Most of my students are learning how to sew for the first time and need a beginner's machine. Many of the donated machines we already have are heavy-duty and very intimidating for beginning students. Students will feel comfortable learning new skills with a new, user-friendly sewing machine.

I always rely on the kind donations of others to help build our program.

The students love learning how to sew and create costumes for our school productions.
