Asking for YOUR Support for HPSBG

Hi Isabel and Phil,

I wanted to elicit your support.  Digital storytelling is a powerful tool for student success. And when technology meets creativity, students win.  

From more than 870 projects from 46 states, we are thrilled that Digital Storytelling: Connecting Science, History, and Advocacy at HPSBG was selected to be one of 30 finalists in the “ATT Digital Storytelling Challenge presented by DonorsChoose.org.”  

Winning projects receive a DonorsChoose.org gift card worth $5,000, to sustain digital storytelling projects so even more students to experience the magic of digital storytelling!

Now through May 11, text “jrdrake” to “50555” to cast your vote. And then vote again by visiting the public voting page here: attcsrteam.typeform.com/to/Gyo f6u to vote for “PS 48 Joseph R Drake.” Each person can vote once through each method.

For more info, visit the HPSBG AT&T Digital Storytelling Challenge page. #ATTStorytellers

Then share on social media. Encourage your connections as well. Feel free to use and share the images attached.

Thank you!
