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

Help me give my students the winter essentials they need to stay warm and healthy during the coldest months! My goal is to provide students access to a cart with everything they need inside of our classroom. Additionally, I will provide students with their own travel size products to keep in their own backpacks to use as the need outside of the classroom. I want students to stay healthy, warm, and comfortable as we brace ourselves for the coldest months.

Your donation is going to help provide basic winter necessities to my middle school students that will help them stay warm, healthy, and feel cared for during the coldest time of year!

Kleenex Expressions Ultra Soft Facial Tissues: Help maintain good hygiene and prevent the spread of illnesses during the cold and flu season.

ChapStick Moisturizer Original Lip Balm: Prevent chapped lips, a common discomfort during winter, ensuring students are comfortable and focused.

LYDTICK 10 Pack Water Bottles: Encourage hydration, which is crucial for overall health and concentration. Every student having their own water bottle will prevent students from sharing water bottles and spreading germs.

HESTYA 14 Pairs Magic Kids Winter Gloves: Keep hands warm during recess, while waiting for the school bus, and walking home from school.

Cooraby 12 Pack Knitted Winter Beanies: Provide head warmth, contributing to overall body comfort in colder temperatures.

GENTABY Kids Socks: Keep feet warm, enhancing overall comfort during the winter months. On days that it snows students will have access to dry socks in case their socks get wet at recess.

I've also included some healthy snacks for my students who experience hunger during class.

Thank you for helping me provide my middle school students with the winter essentials they need!
