My Students

Our students live in a small, isolated community on the Ohio River In Cincinnati. The families are close and there are no stores close by. We are 13 miles from downtown, west toward Indiana.

There is a large disparity in some of our families, with a small percentage who don't have a device in the home.

Right now, we are in desperate need of laptops to give to a handful of families who have no other devices in their homes.

My Project

Our students are trying to learn from home on a phone, and if this is funded, they will have a laptop to work on and keep throughout the duration of school! About 15% of our families are in need right now.

Our 5-8th graders received iPads through a Verizon grant this year, and most of them have one to work on.

We will give the laptops to older students who rely heavily on video classes and online forms who did not get an iPad. We will also give them to families with multiple kids who need to be on computers.

Thank you for your consideration and generosity.
