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 Students

My school serves almost 500 New York City public school students. Ninety-four percent of the population are minority students. Eighty percent qualify for free or reduced rate lunch. About 30% are students with disabilities and English Language Learners.

We are a school specializes in business, promotes college and career readiness, offers year-round experiences that include many work related trips, workshops, business based competitions, work-based and service learning opportunities, mentoring, career counseling and internships for all our hard working students including those economically disadvantaged .

My Project

Many of our students who liv at or below the poverty line, whether at home or in temporary shelters.

Students in need, often choose not to sign up, participate and even turn down life-changing opportunities such as work related field trips, competitions, workshops, internships and job interviews simply because they are embarrassed that they do not have clean clothes available or the money needed to go to the laundry mat.

Having a portable washer/dryers on school premises will be a game changer for these students to succeed at trying to grab the best of what the world has to offer!
