Distance Learning Supplies for Pasadena Students
Donation protected
Dear Community,
As you are aware, students have been forced to attend school from home in a distance learning environment. As challenging as that is, many students in Pasadena do not have a quiet space to engage in their remote classes. Most school district students qualify for a reduced or free lunch and so their families don't have the resources needed to help with this challenge. The Baha'is of Pasadena are hoping to to help provide headsets for a group of these students who are in foster care or in a homeless situation. Baha'is believe in the paramount importance of education and hope this effort can help provide better access to online instruction for these students.
The recommended headset for the virtual learning is a Logitech H570e headset. All the funds gathered will go directly to purchasing the headset for the particular student in foster care or homeless situation.
Cost of Logitech H570e: $49.99
We hope to reach the goal by March 1, 2021. Thank you for reading our campaign and for your consideration.
"Children are the most precious treasure a community can possess, for in them are the promise and guarantee of the future. They bear the seeds of the character of future society which is largely shaped by what the adults constituting the community do or fail to do with respect to children. They are a trust no community can neglect with impunity. An all-embracing love of children, the manner of treating them, the quality of attention shown them, the spirit of adult behavior toward them – – these are all among the vital aspects of the requisite attitude. Love demands discipline, the courage to accustom children to hardship, not to indulge their whims or leave them entirely to their own devices. An atmosphere needs to be maintained in which children feel that they belong to the community and share in its purpose.”
