I teach Advanced Photography with juniors and seniors in an extremely talented school with moderate poverty in New York.

My students are interested in improving their conceptual and technical skills as photographers. In order to engage them with hands on activities they need cameras to use, which we currently do not have.

I am requesting one digital camera, a camera case, two memory cards, a rechargeable battery and a battery charger. This equipment will enable my students to capture their visions.

Your help will make it possible for my students to share their perspectives of our world with their classmates and community.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
