The BAM Build Bunker Opens!

Our Bon Air Elementary Makerspace vision came to life this past week. Our first group of students entered the space filled with anticipation and wonder. We watched several videos of Makerspaces around the United States and we brainstormed what our Makerspace might look like. Together our B.A.M. Build Bunker was born!

Thanks to our generous donors who donated funds towards our Donor's Choose Build Bunker project we were able to purchase supplies to get our vision off the ground. Our donors donated over $450 to support our idea and make our dream a reality.

This week a group of third graders had the privilege to open the boxes of supplies that were purchased by our donors. Inside they found boxes of Legos, KNEX, snap circuits, and virtual building games. They were anxious to get started "making" with these new supplies.

The expressions of joy will warm your heart as these students get to enjoy Christmas in September!

If you are interested in donating to our project, it would help sustain the life of our Build Bunker Please visit our Donor's Choose website and consider donating. Your funds are used for gift cards we use to purchase more supplies and continue keeping our Makerspace a fully stocked space. The more supplies we have available the more students we can work with on a daily basis. Visit our site below!
