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 students love to move, play, and challenge themselves—and having the right equipment makes all the difference! With your support, we can bring excitement and energy to our playground and PE time with brand-new tetherballs, basketballs, volleyballs, footballs, and soccer balls.

These items will help our students build teamwork, improve coordination, and stay active in fun and engaging ways.

Whether it’s a fast-paced soccer match, a friendly game of volleyball, or taking turns at the tetherball pole, these activities promote physical fitness, sportsmanship, and joy throughout the day.

By donating, you’ll help us create a dynamic and inclusive space where every student can find something they love to do. Let’s fuel their passion for play and keep our kids moving!

Thank you for being part of our team.
