Help me give my students the tools they need to succeed in Photoshop by providing an iMac that can keep up with our lessons—my current Dell constantly crashes, slowing down instruction and limiting their learning experience.

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
My students are incredibly creative, curious, and eager to learn new skills that will prepare them for the future. I love how fearless they are when exploring design and digital tools—they’re not afraid to experiment, collaborate, and express themselves through their work.
Having access to a reliable iMac will ensure they can use Photoshop without interruptions, helping them stay focused and confident during lessons.
Instead of waiting through crashes or slow processing, they’ll be able to dive right into creating, learning real-world design skills that could spark future careers. This resource isn’t just a computer—it’s a gateway to unlocking their full creative potential.
