My Project

Dear Donor,

I am excited to share a unique opportunity to support my students through our project, Digital Art Creations with Sublimation.

We are seeking a sublimation printer and a heat press machine to bring our fashion design lessons to life. These tools enable students to transfer their digital artwork onto fabrics and garments, transforming sketches into wearable art. Access to this equipment will elevate their creativity, technical skills, and understanding of how digital design connects to real-world fashion and entrepreneurship.

My goal is to build a hands-on learning experience that blends visual arts, technology, and career readiness. With the sublimation printer and heat press, students will learn how to design digitally, print on fabric, and produce custom clothing and accessories, preparing them for future opportunities in design, merchandising, and small business ownership.

What makes my students truly special is their bold creativity and desire to tell their own stories through art. Many come from underrepresented communities and often lack access to specialized equipment or materials. With your support, we can give them the tools not only to imagine but also to create and bring their visions to life. Thank you for helping us bring their talents to the next level!

Warmly,

Lynnette Rodgers
