Celebrating 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

Hello! In our Special Education Mild/Moderate classroom, I strive to create a safe and enriching environment for my incredible students. Many children process the world differently, and sensory tools play a vital role in helping them regulate their emotions, focus their attention, and access learning. These items, like fidget toys, sensory materials, and visual aids aren't just "toys"—they're essential tools that provide comfort, reduce anxiety, and unlock potential. By donating to this project for these essential items, you're directly contributing to a more enriching and supportive learning experience for my amazing kiddos. Your generosity can make a profound difference in their ability to thrive, and I would be deeply grateful for any contribution you can make. Thank you!

Ms. Salazar will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by May 9.
