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

In our school, students from low-income backgrounds face limited access to diverse play activities. We believe that every child deserves the chance to experience the joy, teamwork, and personal growth that sports can provide. To help bridge this gap, we are launching a new initiative to introduce badminton and floor hockey, creating inclusive spaces where students can develop skills, build friendships, and stay active.

Thank you for considering our cause.

Together, we can empower our youth, promote healthy lifestyles, and create a community where every child has the chance to play, grow, and thrive.

Ms. Soto Extera Public Charter School 1 Annex Grades 6-8

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.
