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

Our energetic K-5 students love to move, and we want to help them stay active in a fun and exciting way—by becoming Jump Rope Ninjas!

Jumping rope builds coordination, strength, and confidence while also teaching important skills like perseverance and teamwork.

To keep students motivated, they’ll earn colorful beads as they master different jump rope levels, celebrating their progress and encouraging them to keep going!

With your support, we can provide durable, kid-friendly jump ropes and reward beads to help our students stay engaged and excited about physical activity. Every donation brings us closer to giving them the tools they need to jump, learn, and grow. Thank you for helping our students become Jump Rope Ninjas!
