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

Our baseball team is getting ready for the spring season. Our students are so excited to play ball again. Our student-athletes are so resilient and committed they are ready to play even with our outdated equipment. They look forward to the baseball season where they can spend time with their teammates in a safe and healthy environment. Despite our outdated equipment, our athletes do their best. We want to show our students that we support their commitment to their team and school. For the first time in about 8 years, we have a JV and a Varsity team. Please help us to get the much-needed equipment for our student-athletes.
