Donors Choose
Teachers in today's public schools are asked to do more with less. With school budget cuts happening all across the country, now is the perfect time to support Donors Choose. The teachers choose what project they want to work on with their students. The donors choose which project they want to support. The biggest gift of all is for the students - they get to learn and not just from a text book, but hands on learning. The kind of learning that will last them a life time.
The Beginning
Donors Choose's mission is to improve public education by empowering every teacher to be a change-maker and enabling any citizen to be a philanthropist." excerpt from DonororsChoose.org website
Donors Choose is open to every public school in the US.

Personal Story

The students displayed their completed projects in a glass case that was on display for anyone visiting the building the see. In the display they mentioned that the materials came via donations from DonorsChoose.org.

You Choose Your Project
One of the best things about Donors Choose is that YOU get to choose which project to support. Maybe you feel strongly that arts funding is being cut too much. Find a project that centers on the arts and support it with your dollars. The subjects range from science & math to applied learning to health & sports. There really is something for everyone!
Maybe you want to support your state/county or city schools. You can do that also!
Maybe you just want to help..the children need that most of all!

Support the Arts!
Health & Sports Need a Hand Too!
These Projects Expire Soon!

- I love this Donors Choose. My project recently expired b/c it did not get enough donations. Very sad.
