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 students are at an inner city school in the lower economic area of Houston, TX. This equipment will also provide our coaches with more equipment for their classes as well. These basketballs would be enough not just for every student on our team to practice, but for many years to come.

Many of our students are unable to own a basketball or a hoop at home, so after school is the only time they can practice.

They are dedicated students and athletes.

They would love new equipment so they all can play and practice together.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
