My Project

Hello all once again! Mr. Ben here at Jefferson asking for still more materials to give our building a true media workroom. Having been blessed by so many wonderful, generous, and forward thinking individuals on this platform, we have had the opportunity to spend the past few months using the equipment that was donated to us to develop podcasts, videos, and now music. After spending hours processing videos and finding new ways to create, we are finding that there is still room for growth and expansion here at our school - especially in this new digital age.

We need more materials to keep up with media creation in 2024 and we want to provide them for the entire building to use for things like announcements, assemblies, and advocacy.

We are requesting just a few more pieces of equipment so that we can create an AV club, a broadcasting space, and a true 2024 media room. It feels like we have been so blessed and lucky thus far to receive the donations that we have and if there are those out there that still have resources to give, we will be beyond grateful to be able to give our students this opportunity.

Grades 9-12
