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

The classroom snacks we're requesting will positively impact my students' learning by providing essential nutritional support, ensuring sustained energy levels, and promoting overall well-being, which is crucial for concentration and focus. This snack project aims to create a healthy and supportive environment that fosters optimal learning conditions, helping students stay engaged and ready to absorb new information. What makes my students special is their diverse backgrounds, unique talents, and boundless potential. These snacks will contribute to their physical and cognitive development, enabling them to participate in classroom activities and thrive academically fully.

Ms. Nicolas Santa Clara Elementary School Grades 3-5

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

Equity Focus

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.
