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

This Donors Choose campaign aims to revolutionize our Volleyball team at our Title 1 school in Houston, Texas, specifically catering to the needs of players who are new to the sport. By acquiring essential practice equipment, such as agility cones and specialized training gear like the setting net and hand guides, we'll foster an environment for skill enhancement and performance improvement. This initiative isn't just about acquiring equipment; it's about providing opportunities for our players to develop their abilities, boost agility, and refine their techniques. With these resources, our team can engage in structured practice sessions that focus on fundamental skills, ensuring that every player, regardless of experience, has the tools necessary to thrive. This campaign isn't just about equipment; it's about investing in the growth and success of our dedicated athletes.
