Morton Middle Needs Cameras!
Photo taken by a 7th grade student.
Hey guys! I'm James Barron, and I am a photography instructor for students at Morton Middle School in Fall River! I totally love my job, and every day I see a new student's talent shine through. Unfortunately, they can't work to their full potential because they have very inexpensive, automatic cameras.
I have asked multiple higher-ups in the district, and I have been told that there are no funds to purchase D-SLR cameras. The students are at a learning plateau, because they have learned most of what they need to know already through their small point-and-shoot cameras. We're looking to get 7 Canon EOS Rebel T3 cameras (or similar). Any extra money will be used to purchase lighting!
I am asking that you guys help out by sharing, donating, or spreading the word. My students are eager to learn about f-stops, shutter speeds, and manual focusing, and your donation could help them achieve their artistic goals!
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I am also looking for any photography magazines, old props, or even used cameras for donation.
Thanks so much!
