“Several of the students that participated,

I saw them developing, being able to express themselves within their communities. Learning how to talk about their lives and their histories and their backgrounds. Some of our quieter students, I saw them learn how to express themselves through photography and learn how to look at themselves as creative and think that they have things to offer and that their perspective is unique and valuable.”

ABOUT THE PLATFORM

The 100cameras program platform is specifically designed to work worldwide in partnership with local organizations such as schools, community centers, children’s homes, enrichment programs, after-school programs, and more.

Through interactive lectures, camera and photo activities, and group discussions, our custom curriculum and methodology utilize storytelling and photography to provide a clearing where youth can process and tell their stories and experiences with no judgment or expectations.

Various budget options are available and built specifically around what your organization needs, including options for free programming.

OPTION: CUSTOM STUDENT CAMERA

An affordable, custom camera that works alongside our comprehensive curriculum.

 

NOTES:

  • This $75 camera is an “Outdoor Only” camera that fully works with our comprehensive curriculum, including all activities. To keep pricing as accessible as possible, it does not include “flash” capabilities, yet it is still designed with auto-focus among other key features.

  • Coming soon in 2024 is another 100cameras exclusive model that can be used indoors and outdoors which includes “flash” capabilities. Contact us for pricing and timing for when this camera will be brought to market!

For years, we have been in a pursuit to overcome the barrier of expensive cameras that has led us to a milestone achievement - the introduction of an exclusive 100cameras camera.

This camera is not available elsewhere in the market. After navigating the industry for over 15 years, we have yet to find another option that meets this price point and has the functions this camera provides.

Working directly with manufacturers has allowed us to tailor this camera specifically for our programming that utilizes SEL to teach students how to process their experiences and build connection with others - all through the play and FUN of photography that gets students outdoors.
