BACK TO SCHOOL BOOST 2025: Friends of Amundsen’s 8th annual back-to-school fundraising campaign 

CAMPAIGN FOR CHROMEBOOKS
Our students use Chromebook laptop computers daily in the classroom as an integral part of learning. AHS classes rely on Chromebooks for a wide range of activities including research projects, presentations, website design, surveys, group  collaboration and much more. Unfortunately, Amundsen’s current Chromebook inventory is too small, outdated and in disrepair, and our students are suffering for it.

With your help, this year’s Back to School Boost will provide much-needed new Chromebooks, charging carts, and establish an in-house repair fund so our students have ample access to up-to-date classroom computer technology. The more money we raise as part of this campaign, the more new Chromebooks we can put in the hands of Amundsen students. 
 

OUR 2025 FUNDRAISING GOAL IS $55,000
$55,000 will purchase three fully stocked Chromebook charging carts, 108 Chromebooks, and allow $5,000 for Chromebook repairs. Here is the cost breakdown for this much needed technology update:

  • Three mobile Chromebook charging carts: $6,500. 
  • 108 Chromebooks to fill three carts: $48,000.
  • Timely in-house Chromebook repair fund: $5,000

(Note: Three Chromebook carts will not meet Amundsen’s full need for updated Chromebooks. The school will prioritize deploying new devices to the classrooms with the greatest technological needs.)

Thank you for your support!
