My Project

My students are amazing, hard working, and creative students that come from all over the city of Pittsburgh to learn together here at our high school. Their dedication alone to get to school on time, some taking two public buses to get here at 7:30 am, reminds me just how determined they really are.

My students create handmade, unique pieces of jewelry that they hand polish after they are done soldering and sanding.

I would love to provide them with a new, innovative opportunity to be able to finish their incredible jewelry projects. This sandblasting machine and files will result in beautiful satin finishes for their jewelry. These dedicated and talented students deserve this machine, and I know they would use it every day!
