Telling Stories Through Photography

My students need a photo quality printer and ink. Their photos are so amazing, they were shown at the Getty Museum, yet we have no printer for school displays.

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 Students

Not all photos are worth a thousand words, but my students' are. Incredibly talented, they artfully use photography to reflect about their own lives and tell their own stories. They need a photo quality printer to showcase those amazing photos and stories.

Positive / Negative: Help my students eliminate the negative: My VERY deserving students live in an impoverished area of Los Angeles.

Their lives are full of challenges, yet they are full of life, positive spirit, and pride for their community. Photography and its ability to help tell the stories of their community and culture, helps reinforce the positive and eliminate the negative in their lives.

My Project

These beginning photo students are so good at what they do, they recently exhibited at the Getty Museum and inspired hundreds of people including some with dozens of years of professional expertise in photography. Yet, they don't have a photo quality printer to display work to our own school community. Please help us acquire this essential tool!

My students' photos tell stories that are meant to inspire others.

With a photo quality printer, they can do that, in their school and in their community. Please help them do that by donating to this very worthy cause.
