Donors Choose

Today, I bring you to a charity, Donors Choose. As we all know, schools don't always have enough money. Well, Donors Choose hopes to help with that. Their mission is simple, to raise money to help pay for classroom supplies and field trips to help education become more fun and engaging, and therefore more effective. Their method, though, is different from some other charities. Here, teachers write about the things they need help paying for, and you choose the ones you want to give money to, like if you wanted to help students learn about space, you can choose a trip to the planetarium to donate money for and that's what your money will pay for, rather than new footballs, or vice versa. I think this is a great way to help improve education and urge you to check it out.
