Gamers need Gear!

Help me give my students equipment for eSports so they don't use their own.

My Project

Our high school has only recently added eSports to its roster of activities. As such, this fledgling program is shorts on the gear needed to allow the players to, well, play. This low supply has required students to bring their own equipment to school which is not ideal. Their belongings could be damaged, stolen, or may not meet the requirements.

To remedy this situation, I am asking you, dear donor, to support our program by helping purchase gaming gear.

The monitor will provide a screen for multiple games and the Switch will let students leave theirs at home. Other sports and activities often have a plethora of equipment provided, but eSports does not. Not yet, anyway. Please help us ease the gear gap so our players have an easier time competing.
