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 am reaching out to seek your support for an important initiative that is making a difference in the lives of young girls. our Mental Health Girls Group. As you may know, mental health is a critical issue, especially for young women navigating the challenges of school, peer pressure, and self-identity.

Our group provides a safe space where girls can openly discuss their mental health, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies.

Through group counseling, activities, and support, we aim to empower these young women to lead fulfilling, balanced lives.

Your donations will directly contribute to therapeutic activities (journals, art supplies, snacks).

Our students come from financially stricken homes and often suffer from hunger on a daily basis
