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 Students

I coach at a Title I school that targets students of low socioeconomic areas of Las Vegas and serves all grades Kindergarten-12th grade.

My student-athletes deserve the same opportunities to compete as students in all corners of the Las Vegas Valley.

Please help me provide them with a high quality sports program as we try to grow the whole student for their long term success.

My Project

Our school, named after the Vegas Golden Knights and using the color scheme to match the Raiders is in large need of sports equipment.

We are launching a brand new sports program for high school, middle school and elementary!

As you can imagine our equipment needs list is quite high. I know the list requested looks long, but this is only a small part of a bare bones equipment list we would need to get going.

In the fall alone, we are looking to launch brand new high school football, basketball, volleyball and soccer programs. In addition to that, we will be launching flag football and volleyball for our elementary and middle schools.

Please help us acquire this equipment so by the time the kids come back, we have the equipment we need so they can hit the ground running! Thank you for your support and please share our journey if you can.
