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

In order to be ready to learn students need proper nutrition and nourishment. As a teacher in a Title 1 school I've seen first hand how food insecurity can significantly hamper a students chance of academic success and negatively affect their mental health.

Come help support the students at my school in both their mental health and food insecurity.

Snacks will be used to give those whose nutritional needs unfortunately cannot be met at home due to a variety of circumstances out of my students control. Your donation will help fill the gaps and give every student the opportunity to succeed in High School and beyond.
