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

Thank you for taking the time to consider sponsoring our middle school girls’ soccer program. We are a part of the Houston Independent School District and a Title 1 school. Our students come from low income families.

Our vision is to provide opportunities for young girls to aspire to play and learn the fundamentals of soccer, life skills, and peer education.

I have 20 girls in my soccer team and we need all the help we can get. Your generosity will enable these young girls the chance to develop life-long friendships and teammates, experience great pride in their school and for many, participate in something that may very well be an opportunity of a lifetime. Thank you in advance for considering this request. Go Pirates!
