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

Your generous support will allow a group of passionate, future scientists to unlock their full potential and take a pivotal step in their academic and professional careers. These students are more than just learners—they are future leaders in biology, eager to contribute to groundbreaking discoveries that will shape the future of science. By providing them with the tools to feel confident and empowered, you’re investing in the next generation of innovators who will make a real impact on our world.

The Professional Lab Coats will serve as a powerful symbol of our students' commitment to their studies and their future careers in science.

These lab coats will not only provide protection during hands-on experiments but will also inspire confidence, professionalism, and pride in their work. Whether they’re studying cell structures or conducting experiments, the lab coats will remind them that they are part of the global scientific community. For many, this will be a continual source of inspiration—starting as 8th-grade students taking biology regents and moving forward with the belief that they are truly college-ready and prepared for a career in the sciences. It will be a daily reminder that they belong in the field, driving them to strive for excellence every step of the way.

This project aims to create a lasting impact by equipping students with the resources they need to succeed. The lab coats will help foster a sense of ownership, responsibility, and belonging, setting the stage for future achievements. With your support, you’ll be helping these students feel valued and motivated to continue their journey toward becoming the next generation of biologists. Your contribution will leave a lasting legacy in their academic and professional development.
