Intro into Electrical Engineering

Help me give my students a chance to experiment with electrical engineering. Igniting interest in building electronics with a radio can lead a student to design cars and computers in the future!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Chamblee's classroom raised $573

My Project

My students love building projects, but I want to give them something more than our usual cardboard and popsicle sticks!

Through projects like building a radio from scratch, students can ignite their interests.

A radio today could easily lead them to building a computer or a car in their future.

My school is located on the south side of Chicago, and our schools had 2 billion cut from their budget this year. My students are so accustomed to being told "we don't have the money for that" at school and at home. I would love to be able to give them some high quality materials
