Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

I am a 7th and 8th grade math teacher and the yearbook advisory for the middle school.

We are looking for a camera that has everything we could ask and need to help us take better quality pictures for our yearbook. We only five cameras that the students share amongst themselves to take pictures, but most of the time the pictures are very blurry and dark. Our goal every year is to put a better yearbook out then the previous year and to do that we need a camera that can take quality pictures of our football players playing in a game, students performing on stage in a dark auditorium. We want a camera that will fix the shaking movement of the camera so we do not get blurry pictures.

We would like to have at least one camera that we could use to be able to take great quality photos. Having this camera would be a start to improving the quality of our pictures in our yearbook.

With your help you would help ensure that our students have a camera to be able to take better quality pictures for our yearbook. A book that the students will keep and cherish down the road.
