Mr. Andersen from Salt Lake City UT is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Help Us Turn On the Lights, Camera, and Action!

My students need the proper lights and cameras to get up on stage and act. They also need tripods to record and show the world how awesome they are.

My Students

On a daily basis, our classroom is full of energy. My class provides my students a chance to get up and perform in front of their peers. They love to be on stage, and they love showing their parents at home the great things they are doing at school.

My students are a combination of amazing people from all over the world.

Many of our students are refugees from around the world, There are over 40 languages spoken within our school and many different cultures in our classroom. Our students have embraced learning and are now placing higher than ever in testing and achievement. They are truly a success story.

My Project

My students need the proper lights and cameras to get up on stage and act. They also need tripods to record and show the world how awesome they are. My students will use these materials to be able to get up on stage and be proud. We need your help to turn the lights on. They love to perform and show off but we need the lights to make them look good and give them confidence. These materials will be able to set the stage for the amazing student works that are being written and will give them a stage to perform on.

These donations will turn the lights on for my class and let them shine for the world to see.

They will be able to write, act, and direct amazing plays, commercials, and scenes. This will give them valuable tools as they move out and into the workforce
