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 tennis players endure long hot days during tennis matches. With your help we can help provide valuable shade to help cool them and help them play to the best of their abilities. Shade is essential to the body cooling and being at its best during competition.

El paso,TX can see temperatures of up to 115 F during the summer and early fall.

With your help we can eliminate the rate of heat strokes and heat exhaustion. These umbrellas will be utilize in fall and spring, as El Paso, hot desert climate can benifit from this.
