Help Us Help Our Community!

My students need a camera and a memory card to record/stream school events and make them available on our website. Our goal is to help build community at our school.

My Students

Imagine being able to reach every student and every parent in our charter school community all while teaching valuable skills to the student population. The opportunity is here with your help! With a camera we can continue to pursue our goal.

My students are highly motivated but need your help to make their dream a reality.

They need some equipment to help make their goal of building community come to fruition. My Video Production students have some amazing goals this year. Some of which include streaming live sporting events, taping class lectures, making a morning announcements show and more! Although we have completed a few of these already we do not have enough cameras to share between all the students in the class. We just completed our first event but did not have enough cameras. Please help my students achieve their goal of helping their community.

My Project

Every year our school keeps adding students. We have seen a need to bring our community together. With your donation you will help buy a camera for our program. We will then have another camera to expand our taping and streaming live sporting events and meetings across the city to all the families of our students. We can continue taping class lectures for teachers to use a tool to help struggling students. We are also very excited about making an announcements show for the school community! We can't complete all of these without additional cameras/equipment, and this is why we need your valuable donations!

If you can help us fund this project, you will not just be helping buy a camera.

You will help bring an entire school and community together, one video at a time. When we are all on the same page because of technology it increases our sense of community that much more. With an ever-increasing student population I can think of no better time to implement a program that helps keep families and students informed.
