Celebrating 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

We are a girls soccer team in desperate need of equipment. We are located in THE poorest congressional district in the nation.

Most of our players lack soccer equipment to compete and practice on a daily basis.

A lot of our players are first generation students who just want the opportunity to be able to play in an equal playing field. I can do that with your help in funding this wonderful project. Please help me to allow my players to be able to compete and have fun, thank you in advance!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
