Green Living

My solar-power project needs to solar cells and a set of Balsa wood sheets and strips.

  • $622 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I have the privilege of teaching applied physics in the school's Engineering Academy. This project will reach 60 third level students (juniors and seniors).

Green living is the wave of the future. We are asking the students to investigate alternative fuel options, and then design, and build and "green" house of the future.

The solar panels you help us purchase, along with the wood requested will give the students the supplies they need to build their working models. These designs and models will be entered in the county fair competition.

Your donation will ensure that my students have the resources they need to bring their designs beyond just the blueprint stage. They will be able to see how a solar model home works, and fully understand the impact they are able to make on the environment.
