My Project

Receiving a high-quality movie projector and screen will support our students to engage with their community through fundraising service events. With this equipment, students will have the ability to plan and execute impactful fundraisers and awareness campaigns. These resources have a variety of uses: hosting free-will community nights, collecting donations for community organizations, and showing documentaries to inform our community about social issues.

Imagine students organizing an outdoor movie night fundraiser in the heart of our community park, utilizing the projector to display inspirational films that align with their chosen cause.

The large screen will allow us to host larger events and impact more members of our community. Additionally, students can leverage the projector to share their own presentations, effectively communicating the goals and impact of their service initiatives to a wider audience. Students also plan to partner with nonprofits and community leaders to co-host events that raise awareness and funds for important causes.
