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

​We finally have a dance team! The excitement in our hallways is buzzing, and our students are ready to move. The only problem? We’re starting from zero. Right now, we have the passion and the moves, but we don't have the equipment needed.

Since we are a brand-new program, we currently have no equipment.

It’s hard to stay in sync when you’re trying to follow a beat from a tiny phone speaker in a big, echo-filled room. We need a "heartbeat" for our practices, a portable, powerful speaker that can keep up with our energy.

​Your support will provide the very first piece of equipment our team has ever owned. It will help these founding members find their rhythm, build their confidence, and finally hear the music they’ve been working so hard to dance to. Help us turn up the volume and get this team off the ground!
