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

These tetherball poles will make our kids better volleyball players. They will learn how to strike the ball with good technique and they won't have to wait in line anymore. My team would be so happy to be able to participate and would attend volleyball practice more often. The students volleyball serving skills would improve vastly. Their hand-eye coordination would improve so much. When we compete against other teams the kids will be more prepared and have a better understanding of the game. The team would improve so much if they have more tetherball equipment.

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to give kids the gift of enjoyment and fun through sports.
