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

We are a very small rural school and sports are the only extra curricular activity we have for them! My students enjoy representing their school and learning new skills. However, we have a very limited budget and some of our equipment is quite old.

These helmets will not only allow them to participate in games and practices, but they will keep them safe!

The helmets we currently have are either old, damaged, or ill fitting. A donation will not only allow them to participate without having to provide their own equipment but it will keep them safe and looking good!
