  • We Need Picture and Poster Frames

    Funded Jan 15, 2025

    Our frames look amazing in our classroom lab! The students couldn't wait to frame their photos and display them both mounted on our walls as well as in our new awards cabinet! The frames look great and they were very easy for the students to frame up their favorite photos from our class and field trips. Also, they are designing their own movie posters for our poster frames that we received which will adorn our control room walls. It will be a nice touch in our classroom and shows student pride in our program!”

  • Track Pad Needed

    Funded Dec 24, 2024

    The track pad is amazing and it truly helps the students with all their work. The students love using it with our desktop computer system.

    This track pad really helps the students with their work in my class and really helps with many of the 3D software that we use.

    Thanks again so much for helping to fund this important project for my students and helping them get the equipment they need to be successful in my program. They appreciate all the important tools that I can get them to help with their work.”

  • Tables Needed for Use With Laptops

    Funded Dec 29, 2024

    These tables are very very good and just what we needed for the student laptop devices. The students love them so much!

    They were easy to put together by my students and they are very very durable. What's also nice is that they can fold when not in use so we can store them away in our very active lab.

    The students enjoy pulling them up to use with their computers and can't wait to get to work in our media lab setting for great stories on our computer science program. We are in the dept. with computer science and will be covering stories on them!”

  • STEM Classroom Supplies Needed

    Funded Nov 13, 2024

    These items we received are amazing and they allowed for us to hookup many pieces of equipment such as media players, lighting, and more!

    Our lab is highly technical and we needed these items such as a memory card, card reader, and more to make one of our new cameras to work properly. The extension cords were also needed to power our new equipment.

    Thanks again so much for helping with all this much needed wiring and technology to make our new equipment complete. Without these items we wouldn't be able to use the major components in our lab!”

  • A Media Player for Our Program

    Funded Oct 28, 2024

    This media player is truly amazing and works with our control room setup with ease.

    We are able to create computer generated backgrounds to be used in our media computer design lab. The quality is also truly amazing and able to output at a high 4k quality setting.

    This has been a huge upgrade for our lab and the higher quality 3D graphics really stand out in our lab environment. The students are able to view the graphics in the lab once we output them through the media player.

    Thanks again for helping!”

  • We Need Some Cool Lighting for E-sports and Game Design!

    Funded Oct 5, 2024

    This lighting has made a huge difference in our lab! The quality of this lighting is amazing and makes our space look super professional! These lights are able to be controlled a wireless app which makes it super easy to change the look of our lab!

    Furthermore, the students are learning with some great technology on how to make a space look futuristic and highly technical.

    We hope to transfer more of our labs to this look and look forward to creating more projects with the same theme and scope.”

  • We Need a Tripod for Our Financial Literacy stories.

    Funded Oct 7, 2024

    This tripod is amazing and very high quality! Our students are very lucky to use this professional piece of equipment in order for them to create the best content they can. It takes higher end equipment like this for them to learn on because they might use this in the future.

    I hope to have them create more and better work with higher end equipment like this. It is my goal for them to learn with the best tools they can get their hands on!

    Thank you again for donating to this very important project!”

  • Large Screen Needed for Projects

    Funded Sep 23, 2024

    On behalf of Dartmouth High School, I would like to express our sincere gratitude for your generous donation toward the 100-inch television for our media class and athletic department. Your cost-share contribution will make a significant difference in our school, and we are excited to put this valuable resource to use in ways that will benefit both our students and our athletic programs.

    This television will be an essential tool for our media students, who work hard to produce content that highlights and celebrates the achievements of our athletic teams. With its large screen and sharp display, it will provide an ideal platform for showcasing game highlights, promotional videos, and event announcements. The students in our media class will now have access to top-notch technology, which will allow them to improve their skills in video production, broadcasting, and graphic design, while

    creating content that engages the entire school community.

    In addition to its educational value, the television will be a vital asset to our athletic department. It will allow us to effectively display live events, highlight reels, and updates related to our sports teams. The ability to present content of this quality will help us better connect with our students, athletes, and families by ensuring that important information, schedules, and team accomplishments are communicated in an impactful way. It will also serve as a tool to promote upcoming games, fundraising

    events, and other community activities, helping to build school spirit and support for our athletes.

    The large screen will also make it easier for everyone to stay informed. It will grab the attention of students and staff as they walk by, ensuring that no one misses important updates. Whether it's event schedules or team accomplishments, this television will help keep our community connected and up to

    date with the latest information.

    Furthermore, your contribution will give our students valuable real-world experience. By working with cutting-edge technology, they will gain skills in media production that will serve them well in future careers in fields like sports media, broadcasting, and digital production. This hands-on experience will give them a competitive edge as they explore their interests and plan for their futures.

    Once again, thank you for your generosity and for supporting the growth of our students. Your contribution will have a lasting impact, not just in our media class but across the entire athletic department. We are excited to share the stories and updates that will come from this amazing gift and appreciate your role in making it all possible.”

  • We Need IFB Devices for Shows on Financial Literacy

    Funded Sep 29, 2024

    The ifb devices we received are amazing and really do help to improve our programs and stories. The students use them daily in our production facility and improve our shows by communicating with the talent on-set.

    The students enjoy using them in our classes and like the fact that we have 5 different skin tone colors. This helps to hide the ear pieces while on-set in production.

    They are super easy to use and we keep them charged for use. The director of our programs can now communicate with our talent while LIVE on the air! Superb!”

We need professional lighting for our student-produced TV programs. We produce these on a weekly basis and are in need of lighting equipment which we do not currently have. We need a few on-camera LED lights that would really help our production quality. Good lighting equals better video. Our program airs on Youtube as well as the community cable station. We have a large audience base and we are growing our outreach. Therefore we need upgraded equipment. With new on-camera lights, our broadcasts will be more professional with better quality images. Our interviews will look more professional as well. The students will learn proper lighting techniques and they will be able to create better-looking video packages.
