Support Science Leadership Academy’s photo lab [crowdfunding]

"Teachers borrowed, appropriated and repaired" to give SLA students the school's first full-year photography program. Now the magnet public high school is raising $10K for equipment.

Science Leadership Academy held its first photography program this past school year.

“[I]n the midst of a year of extraordinary financial constraints and endless obstacles, our teachers borrowed, appropriated and repaired enough photography equipment to offer SLA students the first full-year photography program our school has ever had,” wrote Doug Herman, head of SLA’s Digital Video and Photography Program.

But the magnet public high school, with two campuses in Center City and Overbrook, can’t print the students’ photos because it doesn’t have the proper equipment. The school is raising $10,000 to buy printers, ink, software and more cameras.

As of this writing, the campaign has raised $7,770.

Support by Aug. 6
