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

Although we are blessed with beautiful tennis courts, we lack a place to store our equipment.

Our courts are a distance away from our campus and about a quarter mile from our athletic office.

Due to this, we have to take out and bring in all of our equipment every day. The biggest issue is our campus doors electronically lock at 6 pm daily and we have no way to enter our building, leaving us waiting outside until a custodian happens to pass by.

We also have to store our equipment in a classroom since our office is so distanced from the courts. Our classrooms are becoming cluttered with our athletic equipment and we would like to provide our athletes with a location to store everything at the end of every practice.

We have two tennis carts, practice rackets, nets, and other equipment that have to be stored and it would be of great help if we had a location to store them near the courts. I would like to thank you all for your time and donations, they truly help our kids.
