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

Imagine trying to practice softball in a gymnasium shared by other sports? Our very first girls' softball middle school team who dare to start from the bottom needs batting training aids to practice our swing in a safe manner for all.

My young middle school students have endured in life what most adults have yet to experience but they still have the courage to continue on.

Battling an environment plagued with poverty, drugs and gang violence, our school strives to provide these students with hope and inspire them to succeed. These young brilliant minds have become shackled to the ideologies of poverty. Teachers at our school have dedicated our lives to liberate them so they can be free. Our newly formed girls' softball has given our female students the opportunity to be active in a productive manner. It has also given them the chance to building meaningful relationships, a sense of family which most of out girls do not have.

My Project

The resources donated to the Lady Tigers will give all our girls the opportunity to practice swinging safely within the confined space of the gymnasium without injuring other players. All the girls will be able to participate in the necessary drills in order to become fierce competitors

The obstacle of not being able to swing for the fences inside of the gymnasium will no longer exist.

Resources donated will help my young athletes gain confidence, determination and self-esteem, becoming successful leaders and team builders in all that they do. They will share a culture that emphasizes pride and team spirit
