Baseball Equipment for Inner City Youth Program

Help me give my students the necessary baseball equipment needed for our season.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kotel's classroom raised $631

This project is fully funded

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

I love that my players show up everyday for practice wanting to learn the game of baseball. They unfortunately do not have the equipment needed.

My kids are good students in the classroom and want to excel on the athletic field.

The donations to this project will help ensure my students can have a successful season and learn the game they love. The requested baseball bats will be used for years to come and will bring great joy and excitement to their faces. I look forward to making this season one they will remember forever and ever.

Mr. Kotel High School of Computers & Technology Grades 9-12
