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 work with limited and non-verbal autistic students. I'm requesting your help to purchase shredders for our school-wide recycling project (which includes recycling bottles and cans).

We teach our students about the importance of saving our environment.

Shredding helps with minimizing clutter in the school office, and classrooms. It also allows for secure recycling of paper waste.

Currently we have one small shredder, and the students fight over who gets to use it. With your help, we will be able to purchase multiple shredders, so more students will be able to shred.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
