Hydrating While Running for Greatness!

Help me give my students quench their thirst with this incredible portable water chiller!

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Gutierrez's classroom raised $1,090

This project is fully funded

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 students consist of a wide range of personalities that all have one thing in common, the eagerness to grow as students. With your support of my project, I will be able to provide my students with resources for success and to be physically active.

My goal is to help scholars find a life long physical activity they can enjoy.

My students will work hard to get smart, have fun, and will be college ready! They are researchers, mathematicians, scientists, authors, historians, etc. My students are the future of El Paso and members of our future society. Every day, they come ready to refine their motor skills and eager to learn about their body.

My Project

This portable water chiller will help out my student athlete's so much. The girl's track and cross country team train hard every single day, and they also train in this Texas heat.

The Texas heat is something serious!

These will help our girl's stay hydrated through practice and their competitions. This water chiller will be taken on the go very easy because it is portable. With your help we can help our girls to stay hydrated throughout training, and this will also help by easily refilling their bottles. I know they will be excited and appreciate it. They will truly be happy and with your help we can bring that joy!
