My Project

In a business classroom, much of what we do involves creating different things and bringing the ideas into focus so other can see them.

In our classroom, we are fortunate to have a color printer (from another Donors Choose project).

The extra ink will allow us to continue to use the printer for the class projects.

Not everything can be done on a computer. Sometimes having a 3D creation is key to demonstrating a project or an idea to others. Without a color printer we are forced to not add the color to make the project pop. Your support adds color into our classroom.
