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

Not having a home playing field or a safe space to swing for the fences hasn't affected our dedication, determination and heart. Help us become champions! Our very first girls' softball middle school team who dares to start from the bottom needs a batting cage to take us to the top!

My young middle school students have endured in life what most adults have yet to experience, but they still have the courage to continue on.

Battling an environment plagued with poverty, drugs and gang violence, our school strives to provide these students with hope and inspire them to succeed. These young brilliant minds have become shackled to the ideologies of poverty. Teachers at our school have dedicated our lives to liberate them so they can be free. Our newly formed girls' softball will give our female students the opportunity to be active in a productive manner.

My Project

The resources donated to the Lady Tigers will give our girls the opportunity to swing for the fences using a standard softball which is something we currently can't do due to space limitations. With the Hurricane Batting Trainer and the batting stick, our girls would be able to practice their hand and eye coordination without physically hitting the ball within a small space which can be dangerous. They will have the opportunity to perfect their swing and become fierce competitors while keeping safe, giving them the chance to be true champions!

The obstacle of not having a safe space or a home playing field will no longer exist.

Resources donated will help my young athletes gain confidence, determination and self-esteem, becoming successful leaders and team builders in all that they do. They will share a culture that emphasizes pride and team spirit.
