Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

This project is designed to celebrate the players and encourage sportsmanship. The SCORES soccer program provides most of the equipment however relies on the coaches to do the rest. The bags will help the students keep all their gear together, and the headbands, wristbands, and laces will help to unify the team as well as the practice pinnies. Ice packs are supplied to ensure the safety of players during practice. The soccer skills players learn through team games and practice are designed to last them a lifetime. Thanks for considering giving to our team!
