Keeping Our Chromebooks and Creativity Charged

Help me give my students 2 UGREEN portable power banks and fast-charging USB-C cables to keep their Chromebooks powered for learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dixon's classroom raised $242

My Project

In my middle school computer science classroom, Chromebooks are essential tools for learning. Students use them daily to code, create, collaborate, and explore technology. Unfortunately, our classroom has very few accessible outlets, and many students struggle to keep their devices charged throughout the day. This leads to frustration, frequent interruptions, and lost learning time.

This project will provide a high-capacity UGREEN portable charging bank and fast-charging USB-C cables to help keep our Chromebooks powered and our students focused.

With this portable charging solution, we can support students who forget to charge their devices at home or need extra power during extended use. By reducing disruptions and promoting responsibility, we’ll create a more efficient and student-centered environment. Your support will help us power up learning by giving students the tools they need to stay connected and engaged in meaningful, hands-on learning activities.
