My Project

At our High School our student are full of powerful ideas, diverse identities and voices that deserve to be seen, heard and celebrated. This project "Sip Your Voice Wear Your Power," is all about giving them the tools to just do that-literally and creatively. With a mug and tumbler press machine, heat transfer supplies, and blank tumblers/mugs; my students will design and produce personalized items that reflect their voices, cultural pride and messages about racial justice and equity.

This interdisciplinary project blends entrepreneurship, digital design and social awareness, and gives students hands on experience creating products with purpose.

This is more than an art or business project - it's about representation, visibility and empowerment.

Our students come from diverse background. Many are already deeply aware of the issues affecting communities, and this project gives them a creative outlet to express themselves. Whether sipping from a tumbler that says "proud to be" they'll be making bold statement not just for fun, but for a future they're ready to help shape.

Please help us give our students a platform to shine one sip and one step at a time
