Hello, I am posting to ask for any information or direction this group may be able to give (or leads for contacts) concerning the possibility of donations to a high school science/ histology laboratory.
I am a high school teacher (Conrad Weiser HS, Robesonia, PA) and Cell/ Molecular Biology PhD student (Univ. of the Sciences, Philadelphia, PA). I developed a histology laboratory this year in my high school and it has taken off! The students are extremely interested in learning and experimenting utilizing histological technique. I am holding a summer program opening the lab for students to work. Initially I thought I would have 5 to 10 students that would want to work over the summer; 28 students are attending. It is inspiring to see such enthusiasm! With this in mind, I would like to try to accumulate some additional equipment/ supplies. If you know of any laboratories that are closing/ shutting down/ or equipment/supplies that are not being utilized and there is a possibility of donating these items to a public high school please email me off list (a_sch...@conradweiser.org<mailto:a_sch...@conradweiser.org>). We are looking for any histology related equipment and supplies ( especially a tissue processor- we are manually processing at this point); as well as any basic laboratory equipment/ supplies (glassware, micropipettes, heating mantles, etc.) Thank you for your time. I love reading the informative posts on this listserv! Have a great summer, Adelle Schade Ms. Adelle L. Schade, B.S., M.Ed., M.S.
