My Project

Our school library makerspace has been a valuable resource for over 10 years, allowing students to use recycled materials to create art and projects. However, it is in need of a refresh as our supplies are dwindling.

We believe that a makerspace kit would significantly enhance the creativity and engagement of our students.

Additionally, our printer has finally stopped working, and we are looking to replace it with a more eco-friendly color printer. This new printer would enable students to print their digital creations for our showcase and assist those who do not have access to a color printer at home with their class projects.

Thank you for considering our request to secure funding for this important project. Your support would make a significant difference in revitalizing our makerspace and enriching our students' educational experience.
