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

I have not even met our students, but I know that they are awesome already. This is my first year at MES. My name is Coach Cathy and I will be teaching with another Amazing Coach. We want this year to rock! Please consider making a donation to help these student shine and have fun along with being healthy. Everyone wants the best for kids. By donating money for cones, ropes, hoops, and PE equipment and rewards you help the future. Most items are PE essential items.

Thank you for reading this and I hope it inspires you to give $1 to whatever you can to help these kids.

Every donations matters like every child matters.

Peace,

Coach Cathy /Amazing Coach
