Help me give my students the opportunity to explore the biological sciences. We are a rural school that would like to explore science on a deeper level. These microscopes would aid in better instruction and learning.

My Project
In the rural area that we are located, students would benefit from new microscopes. They try to keep up with the latest advancements in science. New microscopes will aid in their learning.
Some of these students are pursuing medical careers and need microscopes for the foundational learning before college.
Our school is striving to become a stronger place of learning.
There is only one halfway working microscope in our lab. Our students have tried to use the microscope that we have. It does not have a working light bulb. The lens will not stay focused will it is sitting on the lab table.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
