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 Students

My student-athletes are some of the most dedicated students I know! Many of them come from low-income families and don't have all the resources they need. This year we were impacted by Hurricane Irma. Many of our families had to evacuate and use their savings funds or buy more food because they lost all their groceries due to not having electricity. Many homes didn't have electricity for 2-3 weeks. At our school, it has been years before we have gotten new uniforms. Getting our project funded would mean that our students would get to finally have new uniforms! Sports is a way to keep our students motivated, activated, and engaged in school.

My Project

I want to provide my student-athletes with new soccer uniforms and be able to customize all of their practice gear, along with their new uniforms. I have been coaching soccer at Somerset SoHo for the past three years and we are in need of some new uniforms for our travel team. The Silhouette will allow us to put the names and our school logo on all of our new uniforms and practice gear.

When you look good, you feel good.

My students understand the importance of teamwork, dedication, and sportsmanship. I want them to be able to proudly display all of these characteristics on the field while feeling good about themselves in their new Adidas uniforms as well as the goalkeeper kits. My athletes know that I take them very seriously and we strive to always do our best. With new uniforms, they will have the confidence to take on any team in our district.
