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

Two years ago, I was asked to coach our esports program after the COVID hiatus. Practically starting from scratch, we managed to start the program with Rocket League and Smash Bros. Now, we are trying to expand our program and need more consoles and devices that our budget won't cover. Please help us revitalize our esports program so our kids can see that they have a place with esports and see the importance esports can have in their lives when pursuing STEM programs in their futures, developing communication skills, and improving their teamwork skills!
