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

At Neuwirth Leadership Academy, located in the heart of South Los Angeles, our scholar-athletes show up every day with grit, heart, and an unshakable commitment to excellence, both on and off the field. As Athletic Director, I have the privilege of supporting these young leaders, most of whom come from underserved communities and face various challenges outside of school. Despite those obstacles, they bring their best to every practice, every game, and every moment they step onto the court or field.

Our school is currently in need of some of the resources needed to ensure the success of our athletes.

We are in urgent need of new equipment to support our growing sports teams. We’re seeking a variety of essential items, including basketballs, soccer balls, volleyballs, ball pumps, and other core athletic supplies.

This equipment will not only help us run safer, more effective practices and competitions, but it will also allow us to offer inclusive athletic opportunities to all scholars regardless of experience or background. For many of our kids, sports are more than just games; they are a path to college, a place to belong, and a critical outlet for mental and physical wellness.

Your support will make an immediate and lasting difference in the lives of our scholars. By equipping our teams with the tools they need, you're helping Neuwirth Leadership Academy level the playing field and give our athletes the opportunity to thrive.

Thank you for investing in our kids, our community, and the leaders of tomorrow.
