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
My students are full of energy, determination, and heart. What I love most about them is their willingness to show up, support each other, and keep trying—even when things get tough. Many come from challenging backgrounds, but when they step onto the court, they light up with confidence, teamwork, and joy. Sports give them more than just exercise—they teach communication, leadership, and perseverance.
With your support, I want to give them the resources they need—like proper shoes and equipment—to learn and thrive in volleyball and basketball.
These tools will help them stay safe, build their skills, and feel proud as they grow both as athletes and individuals.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
