Default Attention Designers....Please Read :)

Hi ladies! As I have mentioned before over on DST, I am in my first year of teaching middle and high school. My one class at the high school is graphic arts. I thought I'd have them create a scrapbook of sorts more toward the end of the semester....that's where you all come in.

I work in a very poor school district (50% of the district is at or below poverty level) so I can't really be asking the kids to fork over $$ to purchase digi kits. For a lot of these kids, their school time is the best conversations they have with adults they have all day. They really look forward to the fun projects in this class, and I'd love to add a small scrapbook to the mix.

Would any designers be interested in donating some kits, elements, papers, alphabets, etc so that I could create a DVD of stuff for them to use?

Just to give you an idea of what these kids are interested in, here's some activities/info about the school....
  • these are 10th, 11th, and 12th grade kids
  • some in athletics (football, softball, volleyball, track, football, football, did i say football?)
  • a few are teen parents...one even has twin boys
  • our mascot is the pirate and the motto is "Pirate Pride"
  • other hobbies for them are things like shopping, working, spending time with friends, cars, skateboards, wrestling, etc.)
  • one class is mostly guys and the other is split about 50/50
I've had several generous designers over at DST (see thread here) already agree to help out and I truly appreciate it. I am still in need of some more goodies--especially stuff that teen boys would find fun and useful. If you want to contribute too, please post here or send me a PM if you think you'd be willing to help me out.

Thanks...I can't tell you how much I appreciate it!!!!

I'd be willing to help by adding some of my templates to the mix if you think they'd be helpful. Maybe brag books? Or the full size ones? Let me know if you're interested.
