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

Let's make this school year the best one yet! Together help me welcome back students to another fantastic year of learning, growing, and making memories together.

Your donations will help me create an environment that shows students that their smiling faces have been missed over the summer.

This year is going to be filled with amazing new adventures and many challenges. From exploring new subjects to making new friends and discovering new talents. Don't let the lack of supplies be the reason these kids don't succeed! With your help we can welcome students back with some of the basic supplies needed to start the year.
