Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I hope this message finds you well. As a valued supporter of Dekalb Brilliance Academy and our mission to provide innovative and enriching educational experiences to our students, I am reaching out to share an exciting opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our young learners.

We are seeking donations to purchase Sphero Balls, programmable robotic balls that will revolutionize how our students learn coding and robotics.

These engaging and interactive devices will allow our students to dive into the world of programming in a hands-on and immersive way, developing critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and creativity.

By donating to our Sphero Ball initiative, you will be directly contributing to the empowerment of our students. With access to these cutting-edge educational tools, our students can explore STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) concepts in a fun and engaging manner, preparing them for success in an increasingly technology-driven world.

Your support will provide our students with access to state-of-the-art technology and inspire a lifelong love for learning and discovery. By investing in their education today, you will help shape the innovators, leaders, and problem-solvers of tomorrow.

We understand that these are challenging times for many, and any contribution, regardless of size, will make a meaningful difference. Together, we can empower our students to reach their full potential and positively impact the world.

If you can support our Sphero Ball initiative or want more information about how your donation will be utilized, please don't hesitate to contact us. Your generosity is greatly appreciated, and we thank you in advance for considering this vital cause.
