You may have noticed the new widget in my sidebar, or maybe you saw my post on BlogHer on Wednesday? The DonorsChoose Blogger Challenge stuff? Maybe I even sent you an email about it?
Don’t pretend like you haven’t heard about this. You have. Now it’s time for you to DONATE and BLOG about it yourself. Or maybe even created your own giving page for the challenge.
I created a giving page that features five projects, from five schools, from five cities where our kids have gone to school.
There’s a school in Fairfield California. Jenn and Chris both went to school there.
There’s a school in Burlington NJ. The actual school Jenn graduated from.
There’s a school in Anderson SC. The actual school Michelle attended.
There’s a school in Gainesville Fl. The actual middle school Michelle got suspended from – twice. Hah.
There’s a school in Evanston Il. Prince J, RJ and Liz attended Evanston schools now.
Donate – even $1 will help these classrooms, these teachers, these kids. And in most cases, kids who attend those schools in years to come.
The U.S. finance is falling apart, the uncertainty is making everyone crazy – are the BlogHer execs absolutely SURE this is this the best time for asking people to donate?
I’m still giving this year to poverty-related causes but I’m cutting off everything else.
seems like the best time to remind people that donations are needed now more than ever 🙂
the directed giving especially appeals to me with this campaign…I hope all the classrooms get the supplies they need!
It isn’t clickable??!
