Help me give my students the opportunity to compete in the world of Esports!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hood's classroom raised $750

My Project
Esports is one of the fastest-growing competitive activities in schools, offering students opportunities for teamwork, leadership, and even college scholarships. But to compete at the highest level, our players need the same tools as their opponents. Right now, our hardware is falling behind the competition—costing our team valuable milliseconds in reaction time and limiting access to the newest competitive titles. A next-generation gaming system isn’t a luxury; it’s the standard in esports. Without it, we’re asking our students to play an uphill battle before the match even begins. Your support can level the playing field. With next-gen equipment, our team will train and compete at professional standards, preparing students for collegiate esports and beyond. This upgrade would not only improve performance but also inspire pride, attract new talent, and showcase to our students that their passion and dedication are worth investing in.
When you donate, you’re doing more than buying hardware—you’re investing in opportunity, equity, and the future of a program that gives students a place to belong, a chance to excel, and a pathway to success.
Every contribution brings us closer to giving our players the tools they need to shine. Together, we can help them turn potential into victory.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
