Help Inner-City Teens Discover the Invisible World With Functional Microscopes
Funded Aug 13, 2021Wow! Just, wow! Thank you so much! I can’t wait to see the joy and wonderment in my kids’ eyes when they see their digital microscopes for the first time. Finally, students at Miami Central will get to discover the microscopic world of cells this year and carry this experience with them for a lifetime! Thank you so much for choosing to support science education and investing in our nation's most disadvantaged youth. You rock!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Emerson Collective and one other donor.Donate AP Bio Workbook and Practice Materials to Bright Teens!
Funded Aug 19, 2018I would like to once again express my sincerest gratitude for your donation earlier this year. The workbooks and materials are making a huge difference in my students lives and performance in AP Biology. My students could not believe that people like you were kind enough to donate money towards their workbooks "without knowing a thing about them," as one of my students put it.
Because of your generosity, every single one of my AP students was able to receive a book - something that would not have happened if students were required to purchase it on their own. As many students and families at my school face financial hardship (95% of the students at Miami Central receive free/reduced lunch), the cost of this workbook would have been a challenge for some of my students. Thank you for helping to alleviate that struggle for my AP students this year.
Biology is a complex topic that many students struggle with. These workbooks really help the students grapple with the complexity of this subject in an efficient and powerful way. Each topic is explained in an easy-to-understand way that students prefer over traditional textbooks. Each chapter is also filled with engaging activities and high-impact review questions that really help the students understand the material at a higher level. Additionally, because these workbooks are much lighter than they're assigned textbooks, students usually have no problem toting them back and forth to school and using them during reading and lunch periods to study and complete assignments.
I love that there are people in the world like you who believe in the potential of all kids and take steps to support their goals and dreams. You truly make a difference!”
With gratitude,
Ms. King
