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

Help start up a soccer program at our school. This equipment will enable us to introduce soccer to our students, fostering teamwork, community, and school spirit. Students have been asking for this elective to be offered, and without your support, we will not be able to gather the necessary supplies to make it happen. We are requesting soccer balls, goals, cones, and pinnies. Need as much of your support to make this happen. This will be the foundation required to start up this program, allowing it to be expanded in the future and offered to students who might not be able to afford it themselves.
