Help Mr. Owens

I teach journalism at a large comprehensive public school in an urban area. My students range from the 10th to 12th grades.

Good student journalism is entirely dependent upon the resources that a school possesses. Since I started as a journalism adviser, we haven't had a class set of textbooks and desperately need them.

We need 30 copies of "Inside Reporting" by Tim Harower. This will provide a very valuable reference to my students and improve the quality of their work.

Your donation will help our journalism class to be more accurate and help them provide better coverage of important issues. By helping a class you will be assisting an entire community.
