Crossing Mexico Borders
Funded Dec 23, 2021
Thank you so much for changing our season with these gifts. My girls are so appreciative, I wish we would meet you all to say thank you. The girls received so many compliments and so many words of encouragement. They truly believe there are people out there that care for them. They felt invisible, now they feel so blessed and loved. This small act of kindness has truly put a smile on their faces. I am so grateful, humbled and happy! If you are ever in South Texas, please reach out! We'd loved to honor you and see you at a game.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Martinez
This classroom project was brought to life by #TeachHealthy with Nature Made and 5 other donors.

My student athletes are Mexican American volleyball players who travel to and from Matamoros MX each day to study and play. My girls do not have backpacks or a travel bag to bring their items with them. My students will be using these backpacks to carry their books, practice clothes and any items securely between borders. It is important that they are able to conceal their items to lower their risk of thieves stealing them while crossing international borders. My athletes will use these backpacks everyday and will benefit greatly from them
