My Project

I'm seeking support to provide my students with access to drones equipped with cameras for our school's EAST (Education Accelerated By Service and Technology) program. We are a high-poverty school, with over 90% of our students coming from low-income households in an underserved community. This drone will empower students to design and lead hands-on projects that benefit both our school and the wider community—such as campus mapping, environmental monitoring, and local improvement initiatives. Access to this kind of technology not only enriches their education but also builds real-world skills in STEM, problem-solving, and teamwork—skills that can open doors for a lifetime.

With your help, we can give these students the opportunity they deserve to learn, grow, and lead.
