My Project

The students at Fort Greene Preparatory Academy, a public school in Brooklyn, are both creative and passionate about their education. Our students are used to simple photography with the cameras on their sometimes ancient smartphones. We would like to offer a different and more professional experience with high quality cameras.

The goal is for our students to become photojournalists and tell unique stories through the pictures they capture.

We are partnering with the school's newspaper club to capture unique and everyday exciting moments that happen at Fort Greene Preparatory Academy. The students at Fort Greene Prep are also eager to edit photos using technology we already have. The school has the technology to fully edit and create digital masterpieces using professional software from the Department of Ed. We are simply lacking the technology to capture student imaginations. Please help us create this interactive and expressive club that will serve many students in the years to come.
