Thank you!

Last summer, we participated in the Donors Choose challenge, which enabled us to help kids learn science by contributing to specific projects to classrooms in need. With help from our readers, we raised over $2,500, and ScienceBlogs as a whole raised over $34,000. Today, we got our thank you!

Sixty ESL science books were sent to a classroom in Sam Houston Middle School in Garland, Texas. Here are some of the kids who got to use them:

We also received dozens of handwritten thank-you letters from the kids themselves! Here's one of my favorites:

Thanks to all who donated. If you missed this opportunity to donate to a very worthy cause, there are still unfunded projects out there. You can click on the link above to contribute.
