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.

My Project

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the MS 577 Broadcasting Club! This exciting new venture will give our students the opportunity to produce their own video segments, news shows, and creative content to share with the world on our YouTube channel.

To make this vision a reality, we need your support in providing essential supplies for the club.

These tools will empower our students to create professional-quality broadcasts and gain valuable hands-on experience in media production.

By supporting the Broadcasting Club, you’re helping our students develop critical skills in video production, journalism, storytelling, and digital media. They will gain hands-on experience in a field that is growing rapidly and will be better prepared for future opportunities in the media industry.
