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 school has some pretty incredible humans! We have recently begun a basketball and cheer program. After rigorous tryouts, the Firebirds were selected. All of the students are super excited to get to work and they could use some gear to help make them feel like more of a team. We also have a few school mascots that could use a little swag.

A great way to boost their team spirit is to get them into matching uniforms!

Their goal is to be able to compete competitively with other schools and teams across NYC. We are super excited to see what our Firebirds can do as a team!
