Help me give my students this color printer so we can access visual aids and materials.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Costa's classroom raised $237
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I am requesting an HP color printer to replace our current printer, which has become costly to maintain due to expensive ink cartridges. The new printer model comes with 6 months of free ink through HP's Instant Ink program, making it a more economical choice for our classroom's printing needs.
This project will immediately impact our classroom in several ways: Reduce our monthly operating costs, allowing us to redirect funds to other educational materials; Provide reliable, high-quality color printing for educational materials; Support visual learners with vibrant, engaging worksheets and activities; Enable us to create professional-looking classroom displays and student work showcases
As an added benefit, we plan to donate our current printer to another teacher in need, extending the positive impact of your donation to even more students.
In today's digital age, having reliable printing capabilities is essential for creating an engaging learning environment. This printer will help us: Create differentiated learning materials for various skill levels; Print colorful anchor charts and visual aids; Produce high-quality parent communications; Generate immediate feedback materials for student work; Design creative projects that combine technology with hands-on learning
Your support will not only help my current students but will benefit hundreds of young learners in the years to come. The cost-effective nature of this printer means more of our budget can go directly toward student resources rather than expensive ink cartridges.
Your generosity will make a significant difference in our classroom. By helping us acquire this efficient printer, you're investing in both immediate and long-term educational success. We'll be able to create more engaging materials while being responsible stewards of resources. Thank you for considering our project!
