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

As we build our athletic program, we are trying to provide the best possible experience possible.

Facilities and equipment are a big part of that.

That is why we are trying to receive new sports equipment that will help our students who need it most. I am talking about soccer and volleyball balls, shin guards, and weight-training equipment. This will help prepare our student-athletes for league competition against other schools. Most importantly, this will build up pride in our school and community.

Thank you for donating to our athletic program. We appreciate it.
