Fixing our Classroom Desktop Computers

Help me give my students working computers and headphones so they can focus.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Yannell's classroom raised $479

My Project

In our computer science classroom, having reliable and functional PCs is essential for hands-on learning. Unfortunately, two of our desktop computers have recently encountered critical issues, leaving my students without the necessary tools for their projects and studies.

We've already begun rebuilding the PCs, with my dedicated and curious students taking the lead on the repairs.

We've replaced some key components, but we still need a few more critical parts (heat sinks, RAM, and power supplies) to fully restore these computers to full functionality.

This project is not just about fixing our computers; it's about providing an invaluable learning experience for my students. They will have the opportunity to apply their problem-solving skills and technical knowledge by actively participating in the repair process. By contributing to this project, you will help us acquire the essential parts needed to bring our computers back to life and support our educational journey.

Why We Need Your Support:

Critical Components: The new heat sinks, RAM, and power supplies are crucial for the repair and improvement of our desktop computers.

Hands-On Learning: This project will give students hands-on experience in computer repair and maintenance, fostering practical skills and a deeper understanding of technology.

Enhanced Learning Environment: Restoring our computers will ensure that all students have access to the tools they need for their coursework and creative projects.

Your generous support will directly impact the education and future of our budding tech innovators. Thank you for considering our request and helping us create a thriving learning environment.
