It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Help me give my students Glowforge supplies they can use in the library maker-space to create Christmas presents for their family and friends.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Anderson's classroom raised $595

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our high school library maker-space is always bustling with activity. Students are so creative and are always looking to create things for family and friends. One key component we are lucky to have in our maker-space is a Glowforge.

This project will help students this holiday season to create Christmas presents for family and friends.

We will also use the supplies for a parent night in December. Both parents and students will be able to create gifts.

These supplies will eliminate student's need or worry about being able to afford gifts for family and friends. The only thing they will need is their own creativity.

Mrs. Anderson Van Horn High School Grades 9-12
