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 Students

There is nothing worse than reaching for the camera and the batteries are dead or printing out pictures and the ink is out.

These students come from high poverty families in our neighborhood.

They love coming to school each day. Many of our students depend on school for safety, stability, and two hot meals. Our school is Pre-K through 5th grade school in a large metropolitan city.

My Project

Having the color ink and black ink will allow class photos to be printed the same day they are taken. Being able to display the photos allows the staff, families, and other students to see learning in action. The battery charger with the batteries will enable me to take photos of the students without losing the moment. All learning will be able to be featured in photos. Students will also be able to take their own photos home to share with their families.

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, then we have no words.

You can help us capture our learning moments and precious memories. You can choose to support us and help bring smiles to our faces.
