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
I teach at a Title I middle school where my students inspire me daily with their resilience and passion for soccer. They come to practice eager to learn and play. However, we lack the essential equipment to provide them with the training experience they deserve.
Our boys and girls soccer teams need soccer balls, cones, practice nets, pinnies, and other training tools to improve their skills and teamwork.
With proper equipment, we can create an environment where they feel valued, supported, and motivated to succeed.
Soccer is more than a sport for my students—it’s a safe space where they learn discipline, leadership, and the importance of collaboration. Many of my students face challenges at home, and soccer gives them an outlet to express themselves and build confidence.
Your support will not only provide the tools they need to grow as athletes but also instill lifelong lessons of perseverance and camaraderie.
What Your Donation Will Provide:
• 24 Soccer Balls to ensure every player gets hands-on practice.
• Training Cones for agility drills and game strategies.
• 2 Practice Nets for shooting practice and scrimmages.
• 24 Training Pinnies to easily divide teams for drills and games.
• 2 Ball Storage Bags to keep our equipment organized and accessible.
With your generosity, my students will be able to train with pride and excitement. Together, we can give them the tools to succeed on the field and beyond. Thank you for helping me make a difference in their lives!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
