My Project

I am reaching out to express the need for (at least) one loaner laptop. As an educator, it is important that students have equitable access to technology.

A loaner laptop will help students with broken or malfunctioning laptops while working on a class assignment, test, or project.

By temporarily providing laptops to those in need, we can bridge the digital divide and create a more inclusive educational environment. It will empower students to participate in online research, collaborate on projects, and develop essential digital literacy skills, irrespective of their financial circumstances.

I kindly request your support to purchase at least one loaner laptop for my students. Your contribution will play a pivotal role in fostering equal opportunities for learning.

Thank you for considering this request.
