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

Most of our batteries are aged and tired! Batteries have a long life span, but they do fade in longevity as they are used, and over the years.

This variety of batteries will help power up the journalists' video cameras, our broadcast studio camera, and the photo students' DSLR cameras.

Our Panasonic cameras are still working after 8 years, but the batteries only last about 20 minutes. When the batteries fade too quickly, it sometimes halts filming altogether.

We appreciate your help to wake them up and get them going again!
