My Project

As a current art and photography teacher, I have added the responsibility of being the yearbook adviser. I've found our equipment is woefully inadequate to successfully document school and community events. I am asking for help in purchasing additional zoom lenses so that my students can be successful historians for their school yearbook and for our school for years to come.

I am excited for my students to have access to equipment to help make their jobs easier and so that they can be proud of what they are creating!
