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

Our students will be eternally grateful to receive this baseball glove, which will raise their abilities to be able to compete in our baseball league. This will be a unique opportunity for our students, who struggle to get these resources, to excel in baseball. I am sure that with this baseball glove, our students will feel safe when they arrive at the school and have the necessary tools to be able to still develop their baseball abilities. We thank you in advance for your donations to our baseball program and our students.
