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

We're changing the game for our scholars in Wyandanch, NY, and we need your help to make it happen!

We're launching an exciting new physical education program called ABS: Anything But Sports!

Our goal is simple: to show our amazing elementary school students that there are endless ways to get active, have fun, and keep their bodies healthy, even if they aren't into basketball, football, or soccer. We believe that everyone deserves a way to move that they genuinely love.

We'll be exploring everything from yoga and dance to martial arts, and we're so excited to incorporate technology as a key part of our curriculum. That's where a brand-new Nintendo Switch comes in! By adding a Nintendo Switch, we can bring fun, interactive, and high-energy games to our PE class. Think virtual dance battles, fitness challenges, and epic adventures that get kids up and moving—all while they're having a blast. This isn't just about playing video games; it's about using a platform they already love to build healthy habits that will last a lifetime.

Our students deserve a PE program that’s as diverse and creative as they are. With your help, we can provide them with the tools they need to discover their own unique path to a healthy and active life.

Every dollar brings us closer to giving our students a different kind of PE experience they'll really look forward to. Let's make this happen!
