Help me give my students beakers and 3D Molecular models of DNA and cell membranes.

My Project
We never seem to have enough 50 mL beakers! Since I teach 3 levels of biology, there are many times when there are different labs running at the same time for the 3 courses. These will make it possible to have enough for all lab stations to have what they need. As a title one school, providing meaningful science lab experiences is a priority for me as a teacher.
This DNA molecular model is the only one I'VE seen that can quickly and easily demonstrate how each DNA strand is built, how the two strands connect, and how the twist to form that classic double helix shape.
I can't wait to be able to use this to demonstrate the process and have kids give it a try for themselves. This will be useful for all levels - my Freshman biology students and my AP biology students.
Each year, my AP Biology section has gotten larger and larger. This year the class was so big that we didn't have enough of the Phospholipid Membrane and Transport models so we had to combine groups, such that some had 6 or 7 in their group. With this additional kit, we will be able to ensure all are able to get the hands on experiences from these kits and return to having 4 students per group.
Thank you for your generosity and consideration as you choose to support my students.
