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’m an art teacher at a school that has never had an art program before, and I’m excited to bring creativity and self-expression to our students. However, our budget is extremely limited, and we currently have little to no art materials in our classroom.

We need a variety of supplies to get our art program off the ground, including basic art materials like paint, oil pastels, brushes, glue, tape, yarn, and pompoms.

With your support, we can create a vibrant and inspiring art space where students can explore their creativity and learn about the elements of art.

Your donation will make a significant difference in our ability to provide a meaningful art education to our students. Thank you for considering supporting our classroom and helping to spark a love of art in young minds!
