My Project
The heat press and the drawstring bags being requested in this supplemental project to previously funded projects will get my students sublimating. We need these items to go along with the printer and supplies we now have, both of which were projects funded through DonorsChoose, to have the capability to put the designs that are created and printed onto an actual item, right in the classroom.
Pressing their custom-made designs onto something that can be used every day and seen by others as they show off their designs proudly, is still a small step, but will have a BIG impact on their self outlook, as THIS one simple bag, they design, will be seen by many as they wear it and who knows, they may end up with orders for their design and this will push them towards entrepreneurship.
That would be great! And just to think, "pressing on" to "show off" could lead them to a future they may have never even considered, as they can work for themselves, starting now!
