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 student-athletes are amazing! Most of them don't come from wealthy incomes and most don't go to camps or any other traditional trainings offered by personal coaches. Our students will enjoy using the activewear and shoes during games and practice. The sports equipment will be used to help build strong healthy students to compete against other schools. Our students try their best to be successful on and off the fields and courts. Your donations will help our students have extra items to train and play better. With your donations, NMS students will be given a little extra incentive to do better and become more competitive in sports, but more importantly in the game of life.
