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

We are seeking funds to purchase additional recess equipment to foster teamwork, sharing, and cooperative play among students.

We aim to create a more dynamic and supportive recess environment by providing various engaging and inclusive play options.

This initiative will help children develop essential social skills, such as communication, collaboration, and conflict resolution, while promoting physical activity and overall well-being.

Your support will enable us to equip our playground with the necessary tools like basketballs, footballs, and soccer balls to enrich our students' recess experience and contribute to their holistic development.

The equipment will be used for first-grade recess.
