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

A 50-gallon water dispenser is essential for student athletes participating in outdoor sports in the Texas heat, as it ensures a constant supply of hydration during intense training and competitions. With temperatures often exceeding 100°F, athletes can quickly become dehydrated, which can lead to fatigue, heat exhaustion, or heatstroke. A large water dispenser allows teams to stay hydrated without having to break for long periods to refill individual bottles, helping maintain performance and prevent heat-related illnesses in such extreme conditions.

Hydrate to Dominate, help keep athletes cool in the Texas Heat!
