Equality Counseling: Help Us Help Our Kids!
Equality's High School is fundraising for a chromebook cart so our counselors can work with scholars on college and career planning.
Many of our students don’t have computers at home, putting them at a HUGE disadvantage. Having access to this resource would allow the counseling department to assist more students with postsecondary planning!
Funding will go towards the purchase of 20 Chromebooks and a charging cart
