Reel Creativity: Empowering High School Students Through Film

Help me give my students a high quality camera flash for our film program.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ellis Stephens Leadership Class's classroom raised $373

This project is fully funded

Celebrating 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 excited to announce the launch of our new film program at our high school! We are seeking your support to help us provide our students with the necessary camera equipment to take their skills to the next level. With your help, we will be able to purchase lighting for our film program. This equipment will enable our students to experiment with different techniques and styles and develop their artistic talents.

Our students are eager to learn and are passionate about filmmaking and with your generous support, we can provide them with the resources they need to take their skills to the next level and produce high-quality films.

Your donation will make a significant impact on our program and the lives of our students. By contributing to our film program, you are investing in the future of these young aspiring filmmakers, allowing them to pursue their dreams and achieve success in the world of film.

Thank you for considering our proposal. Together, we can empower our students and help them realize their full potential.
