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 Students

My hard-working students are driven by their extracurricular activities. Their motivation to succeed and build their community is inspiring. After having a difficult year students are eager to engage with nature and socialize with their peers. A sailing team is a group of 12 students (mixed grades) that have a passion for navigating the sea.

My Project

Our school has formed a sailing team this year! We are trying to raise funds to cover the costs of team uniforms (sweatshirts). The goal is to win the Regatta Tournament at the end of the season. The sweatshirts will help the team maintain motivation to reach this goal. The uniforms create a sense of belonging and will make the team feel more united. Currently, practices are getting more challenging with the weather, and students to look forward to wearing their warm gear for the season. The team wants to demonstrate their school pride and spirit with their uniforms. Please help the team achieve their goal. They would be grateful for any donation, no matter the size.

Here are a few words from a student's experience:

"Sailing has taught me so much. When I first began, it pushed me out of my comfort zone and gave me an outlet to explore a new activity while making lifelong friends. Through sailing, I have become so much more confident and a more capable leader. The sport has taught me how to take risks, and I am so grateful to have found it. I want to be able to share the joys of sailing with other students, who I know will love it just as much"
