My Project

The scholars that I teach are students that are leaders within the school. They are apart of Jr. Beta, Gifted, they participate in spelling bees, you name it. They are the ones that will speak or perform in front of others. The only problem with us having to do so is that we do not have a microphone or a sound system.

We are in need of microphones and a sound system for our live streaming of school events.

We have events all of the time now that are streamed via Youtube because of COVID. We have these events with no microphone or system, so you could imagine how hard it is for the audience to hear what we are saying. The microphone and the sound system will allow our voices to be heard while streaming or programs as well as when we are able to have events face to face back in the school. The lighting will help with our video not being so dark online.
