My Project

I teach 8th grade students who are creative, curious, and eager to bring their ideas to life through hands-on learning. One of the most exciting tools in our classroom is our 3D printer, which gives students the opportunity to design and build real objects.

This project will help us purchase PLA filament—the essential material for 3D printing.

With this filament, students can continue working on design-based projects that encourage problem-solving, collaboration, and innovation.

Many of our students come from backgrounds where access to this kind of technology is limited. 3D printing is opening up new worlds for them—not just in creativity, but in engineering, design, and perseverance. Watching their faces light up when they hold something they created from scratch is truly inspiring.

Your support will ensure we have the filament needed to keep printing, creating, and learning. Every spool brings another idea to life!
