Mice In The Lab

My students need 10 USB mice to replace 5 year old mice that have begun to fail due to constant use.

Philadelphia, PA Grades 6-8

My students have used the same computers for 5 years now, without need of repairs due to abuse. Around 30% of these students are lucky enough to have computers at home, the others depend upon the computer lab to learn about technology.

The students have cared for the computers for 5 years running. I am very proud of there care to preserve the quality of the computer lab. Due to daily use, the mice are in need of replacement.

We are in need of 10 mice to replace worn ones that no longer work properly. My students love learning how to use the computer to complete projects. They learn everything from Microsoft Word to PowerPoint.

Many of us are aware of how frustrating a computer can be when the mouse stops tracking. Your donation to purchase new mice will aid students with no computers at home to become proficient in the use of technology.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
