Creating Teams and Creating Memories

Help me give my students an unforgettable creative and transformative experience. With new cameras and lighting equipment, I can make video production equitable for all students who may have never used professional equipment before.

My Project

The middle school newscast is where future journalists are born, and important announcements are made—it's not your average morning show. Students learn how to become professional content creators and be a vital part of our school community. In our video production class, we create leaders and role models who can work in teams, develop practical skills for the future, and express themselves creatively. Since the conception of this class, our student producers have been using their personal devices, leading to inequitable access to creating quality content. Our middle school has the space to continue growing this program, but our equipment is dated, worn, or broken.

By donating to this project, you can help ensure that every student has equal access to essential equipment, improve their work quality, and enhance their overall learning experience.

Investing in new cameras, tripods, and microphones for the video production class is essential to providing all students with a fair and supportive learning environment. By making this equipment available, we will empower our students to explore their creativity and develop practical skills that will benefit them in their academic and professional pursuits. We seek approval and support for the proposed camera purchase to ensure our students receive the best educational experience in the video production class. Thank you for considering this proposal.
