Support Us
In an effort to be fully transparent, we have broken down our giving tiers into categories. Each category includes products that we regularly use in our programs with the students.
At the very bottom of this page you will see a Donor Box. This allows you to set up a reoccurring donation to support our mission.
Each of the donate buttons gives you the details of the items we need, and you have the option of writing in your own custom amount.
We work very hard to help children see the world as bigger than social media and likes.
These are the products that help us do it.
You are the reason why we can. Thank you.

Go Pro
The Go Pro is the camera that the students get to use for the Kid Cam! It’s durable and shoots high quality video. Most importantly, it has a steady cam feature that helps those little hands get good shots that don’t make us sea sick.
Apple
The products that we get from Apple help us with organizing the programs and with staying active on social media (which is where we get to share what we do with you!). The students use the iPod touch to take still photos and capturing their audio recordings on the iPad Pro. Yes, we keep everything they use in cases. Yes, we learned this the hard way.
Administration Needs
This is for a special kind of donor! One we all need.
We know that running a non-profit means staying up to date and very organized with how we spend our dollars. We want to be able to share exactly how your support goes into executing our mission. These tools let us do so. While Quickbooks might not look as cool as a camera, it plays a vital role in the health of our organization. And let’s be honest, all the cool kids (adults) love to reconcile accounts.
Canon Mark IV
This is the camera that we use to record our programs. Each of our programs are filmed in our offices, with the student and his co-host. We have this footage edited and made into a 4 part series that is posted on YouTube. We also bring this camera to the classroom when the student shares with his peers the program he hosted, and then they all do the program together. During this time is when we get to take pictures of the children at work so that we can share them with you.
Sponsor a Program
This covers an entire program. Not only will you get a personal message from the student host, you are also more than welcome to stop by and see the filming in action. For the most adventurous, if you stop by during filming, we would love to have you make a cameo and be interviewed by the student!
