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

Help us revamp our Physical Education closet for the new school year! We are asking for a new printer, soccer balls, gator skin balls, floor fans, and a new electric ball pump. We will also receive new target equipment and soccer goal nets. It is so important for our kiddos to have the proper equipment and we strive for a 1 to 1 ratio of equipment to students. In addition, a new printer and floor fans will help our department run smoothly. Your donation will ensure that we can make that happen and will help us have a successful school year. Thank you for always supporting our program!
