    Funded Feb 2, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generous donation. We promise to continue imagining, continue creating, continue learning.

    With each pencil, we will mark our way. With each pen, we will ink our stories, with the hope that they may inspire those who come next, who share this path.

    Wishing you wellness.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Amar

  • With One Go Pro Camera, We Can Reach the World

    Funded Nov 13, 2024

    We have some amazing news to share. Since you supported us with your generous contribution, we have expanded our partnership with the Guardians of Flushing Bay and the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. Just last month our collective efforts were recognized by GrowNYC with a grant that will enable us to plant a small orchard at our school.

    Yesterday, we added another new partner to our team, NYC Soil and Water Conservation. The coalition is growing!

    Together with the 300 students in our Media Arts program we will be planting trees, caring for our city's rain gardens and tree beds, nurturing and connecting our roots, sharing our resources, and eventually harvesting the fruits of our collective labors. Along the way, thanks to your support, we will document our progress with the GoPro camera, sharing update on multiple websites.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Amar

  • Empower Media Arts Students in Corona, Queens

    Funded Oct 11, 2024

    On Wednesday, December 18th, we held our annual Winter Arts Showcase at C.A.S.A.. This year, hundreds of families attended.

    Thanks to your generous support of our program, over 300 students were able to display their creative, dynamic, transformative media art works.

    I have attached a few photos to give you a glimpse of that very special night. There was a lot of love in our room. Many hugs were shared. Students brought grandparents, neighbors, alumni. Younger siblings stood with widening eyes and frozen smiles staring at our wall of wonder and surfing our ever expanding class website. Many mothers thanked me with tears in their eyes.

    It is no small thing you have done. I hope you know that.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Amar
