Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

These items will help my students prepare for the upcoming soccer season. It will also give them the opportunity to meet students of different races, and ethnic backgrounds through the game of soccer.

My students are at a school in Detroit .There are no supplies for school or sports. I am trying to introduce a sport to that is not the norm. Usually in the inner city kids grow up playing basketball, and football. I have been able to get my students interested in soccer which gives them the opportunity to leave the city and meet people outside of their neighborhood.

To help my team grow I need soccer equipment. My team needs to be able to train and feel as though they are a real soccer team with uniforms and equipment.

By helping you will be making it possible for my students to learn more about the world and the people who live in it through the game of soccer.
