My students need Adidas Triple Stripe Pull Over Jackets in order to provide insulation during warmups to loosen and stretch out the muscles to prevent injury. The knee savers will help our catchers protect their knees.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Perez's classroom raised $796
This project is fully funded
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.
My Students
Our students come from all parts of the city. They come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with over 80% of our students receive free lunch. The budget for simple things, to be able to play a sport, such as athletic gear, uniforms, balls, bats gloves etc., needs to be divided between 10 other teams in the building which makes it difficult to get the necessities needed every single year. Currently, we are in need of new uniforms for the start of our season. It is mandatory that all our students are geared with matching uniforms in order to be eligible to play during the season. With your help, we will be able to get our season underway.
My Project
The Adidas Triple Stripe Warm Up Jacket will help our team stretch fully while providing insulation and heat to their muscles while they stretch. This will ensure that the muscles are fully stretched and injury is prevented.
Our team is a High School Varsity baseball team that plays at a high level.
In order for the players to compete and avoid injury, we need to make sure we are probably warmed up and stretched.
The Mizuno knee savers go along way to help our catchers finish out the season healthy and strong. Spending 2-3 hours kneeling down can take a toll on their knees and back. The knee savers alleviate some of the pressure on their bodies and help them prevent injury. Your donations will go a long way in making sure our players perform at a peak level while staying healthy and strong throughout the entire season.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
