DonorsChoose

By clock on July 28, 2008.

Like we did the last two years, SciBlings will have a month-long fundraising drive for educational projects via DonorsChoose. More info soon.

For now, check out Janet's first teaser for some info.

Also checkk out the DonorsChoose blog for their information.

For the locals - there is an exciting NC part of this all:

The Burroughs Wellcome Fund, an independent private foundation in North Carolina, will support $25,000 in inquiry-based science and mathematics projects through DonorsChoose.org during the 2008 / 2009 school year.

These funds are only available to North Carolina teachers, so take advantage of this opportunity and submit your project today! All eligible projects will automatically be considered. See the sticky-notes below for a few project ideas that would qualify for Burroughs Wellcome Fund support.
