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

New team, new beginnings. The resources donated to our new team of boys will give them the opportunity to practice catching and throwing skills while using their own gloves instead of sharing. All the boys will be able to participate in the necessary drills in order to become fierce competitors. With every student-athlete having their own glove, our girls will improve their catching skills in a collaborative effort to become true champions!

As you may know, some of our younger players and those with petite hands have been facing challenges with the current baseball gloves.

Despite their dedication and enthusiasm, the ill-fitting gloves have hindered their performance on the field and, more importantly, their confidence.

Here's how your support will make a difference:

Improved Comfort and Control: Properly equipment will allow our players to grip and control the ball more effectively, enhancing their fielding and catching abilities. With increased comfort, they'll be able to focus on honing their skills without distractions.

Boosted Confidence: When players have equipment that suits them well, it empowers them to play with confidence. Imagine the impact of seeing a shy player transform into a confident athlete, ready to take on any challenge on the field.

Inclusivity and Team Spirit: By ensuring that all players have access to suitable equipment, we promote inclusivity and teamwork. No player should feel left out or disadvantaged due to equipment limitations.

your donation will foster a sense of belonging and unity among our team members.

Your generosity will not only provide practical solutions but also instill values of support and within our team. Together, we can create an environment where every player feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential
