This teacher needs your help!

Critically Ill Students Need Access to the Computer

My critically-ill students need 2 netbook laptop computers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Desimone's classroom raised $909

This project is fully funded

I am the technology director for a school/hospital rehabilitation center. Many of our students suffer from traumatic brain injury, cancer, and heart transplants.

My major obstacle continues to be lack of funding. These students need specialized instruction so that they can succeed. Often they need to relearn the material that they have learned in the past. Often these students need specialized tools to learn .

I need 2 netbooks, so that these brain injured students will begin to get back their organizational skills for school. This is critical in today's world. A trained school psychologist will use these netbooks as a training method for these students.

Please support this innovative project. Many of these students have suffered at a very young age. With your help they will shine again.
