Celebrating 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.
I am a High School Art teacher in Colorado Springs. This is considered the lower-income side of town where I also coach soccer at the same school. My student make up is mostly Hispanic and come from lower-income families. We have a really hard time trying to raise money at a school that has more than 70 percent of the students on the free lunch program. We are in need of soccer equipment for this fall.
These young athletes love to play soccer in-between working, school and helping their parents take care of their siblings.
The other schools have more money to spend on their athletic programs and we really do need monetary assistance with our athletic program. My young athletes deserve to have the same things that all of the other schools in Colorado get to use. We would really appreciate any help that we could get.
My Project
My student athletes will appreciate and utilize the equipment and coaching tools that are on this list. We need some of the basic materials like soccer ball, goalie gloves and uniforms and some other coaching tools and equipment.
These young athletes are hard working students that are working at school, on the job sites and helping taking care of their siblings.
They deserve the same opportunities as the other teams that have better funding for the extra curricular activities and sports. I am investing a lot of my time in these young men and giving them a very healthy opportunity for them.
