Mental Health Public Service Announcement Project

Help me give my students the tools to record themselves talking about mental health and sharing uplifting messages with classmates to help improve their self-esteem.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pappas's classroom raised $475

This project is fully funded

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

I work in an urban high school. User friendly tools to help kids take video and audio recordings aren't available to us. Funding this iPad will give students tools they know how to use to make videos that will make them feel good making them and their peers feel good getting them.

These tools will transform kids into creators.

Mental Health should be all of our highest priority and these tools will help students take the lead in spreading the good word. Uplifting the kids creating the videos and their peers who feel more comfortable talking about the topics covered by the public service announcements.
