My Students

Can you imagine sitting in a classroom and not being able to connect to what is being taught? My children with disabilities need technology in the classroom to help them excel. We do not have the budget for these materials, please help us!

My kids are preschool age with a variety of disabilities ranging from developmental delays to autism.

They are kids that come from challenging environments and school is their safe place. They are in a full inclusion classroom and are in need of technology to help assist them in this environment. Your help would be very appreciated! As you know our schools are experiencing massive budget cuts and it is effecting our students directly, we need your help.

My Project

With the use of a tablet in the classroom my kids will be able to better communicate and interact within the room. It will also help them engage more in their learning and it also will help the teachers find out the students strengths and weaknesses. Knowing this will help us navigate their learning in a much easier way.

Devices like a tablet can help give a child a voice for the first time.

Being able to communicate is so important for all learners, but to a child with a disability it is life changing. Please be a part of helping make that change.
