Elementary School Students Need 6 iPad USB Chargers

Help me give my students to get 6 iPad USB chargers to charge iPads

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Cheng's classroom raised $158

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our school has about 300 students who study from Pre-K to 5th grade. Most of them are African American children and Hispanic children. Most of them come from low-income families. They are nice and respectful when they interact with other people. They smile at people when they meet people in the morning. Some of them are struggling in math and English, but they work very hard to overcome the challenges. It is my pleasure to be their teacher in the school this year.

My Project

My school has ten iPads. Unfortunately, many iPads’ USB chargers were damaged or lost in the past. Now we have only 2 USB chargers left. It is difficult to use 2 USB chargers to keep charging ten iPads. The iPads are very useful for 3K, Pre-K, kindergarten, and special-education students. The students can touch the iPads to complete different online learning, such as reading online books on Myon, completing math lessons on iReady, and playing educational games on Starfall. The students are very frustrated when the iPads turn off because they run out of power. Please help my school to charge ten iPads easier.
