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

Support the RKA Softball Team as we gear up for an exciting season! We're a dedicated group of young female athletes eager to improve our skills and compete at our best. However, to reach our full potential, we need your help in acquiring essential equipment such as bats, gloves, helmets, and practice gear.

Join us in fostering a love for the game and empowering our girls to excel on and off the field.

Your generous contribution will directly impact our ability to train effectively and perform at our peak during games. Every donation brings us closer to our goal and helps fuel our passion for softball. Thank you for your support!
