Our school does not have an art class, and photography is the one fine art we have through our Yearbook Class. Learning Photography empowers my students and encourages them to delve into other creative areas. Without up-to-date photography equipment, it is difficult to create an innovative, creative yearbook. The use of photography equipment and cameras is a real-world skill that can enhance any area of learning. From backdrops, to lights, Photoshop software and digital cameras these photography items will allow our girls to practice and perfect artistic skills in photography and use their photos for their yearbook. We intend to use our photography equipment to make a state-of-the-art yearbook - and the equipment will be used for many years to come! We would appreciate any one or a few of the items requested. Any photography item, whether on our list or not, whether new or refurbished is greatly appreciated! Thank you for considering donating photography items to Girls Leadership Academy of Arizona!
