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

Students should not have to learn on an empty stomach. Many students come to school fatigued and hungry due to a variety of socio-economic reasons.

Those reasons and their hunger pains impede on their success as students.

Last year with the food donation from supporters using Donors Choose, my students were eager to come to school and I saw an increase in work productivity from the students. The students were motivated and energetic. They appreciated knowing that they could always grab a snack from the closet whenever they needed to. It helped to foster a second home for them.

Your donation will help to reach about 300 students within our school and will make them feel more sustained and motivated to learn. Students should not have to worry about having adequate food. This project will allow me to keep a cabinet of snacks and food readily available for students to take as they need them and for the student council to spread the word about having access to things that kids need on a daily basis.
