Help me give my students a brand new set of baseball bats to be able to complete our baseball season. Our season got underway a few weeks ago and we are already down a few bats.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Perez's classroom raised $585

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 Students
Our students come from all parts of the city. They come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with over 80% of our students receive free lunch. The budget for simple things, to be able to play a sport, such as athletic gear, uniforms, balls, bats gloves, etc., needs to be divided between 10 other teams in the building which makes it difficult to get the necessities needed every single year. Our Varsity Baseball team is currently in need of new uniforms for the start of our season. It is mandatory that all our students are geared with matching uniforms in order to be eligible to play during the season. With your help, we will be able to get our season underway.
My Project
Our season got underway a few weeks ago and our team is off to a hot start. During this hot start, our team is playing hard and well and I would like for us to continue our success. However, in order to continue, we need to bats that will last the entire season. 3 weeks in and we have already broken a few bats which are expensive to replace. We will like for someone to help us buy the Baum bat AAA composite bat because it will not only last for the rest of the season but it will last for a number of years. These bats are durable.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
