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

As a title one school we try to help our families by providing tools and resources such as classroom supplies and uniforms. We currently do not have any shelves to organize and store these items and would love to have an organized space to be able to provide these items to students and their families.

As orders come in we have to stack boxes in our supply closet, so when we are trying to gather supplies it delays us from getting items together.

This issue applies to our uniforms. We have received a generous amount of uniforms but no where to store them. Having these shelves would really help us have a designated space and be able to provide them to families a lot faster.
