Excellent News! Princeton University Press Supports my DonorsChoose Challenge!

tags: , , , ,

What better way is there to celebrate the Nobel Prizes than by helping kids in impoverished classrooms throughout the nation begin their own pursuit of their dreams? By helping kids improve their science education, you will be helping them focus on the positive aspects of their lives and give them an outlet for their energy so they realize that they do have a future! To learn about the proposals that I've chosen to be funded (I do add proposals to my Challenge every few days), click on the above widget (if you use AdBlock, you will instead need to click here to view my Challenge), or, if you find a proposal that you wish me to add to my DonorsChoose Challenge, please do email the link to me and I'll add it!

In recognition of your kind gift to help others, Princeton University Press is offering 2 books with a value of up to $30.00 each as prizes to two of my DonorsChoose Challenge donors: one book will be awarded to the donor who gives the largest gift, and the other book will be given to a donor who will be randomly chosen by my parrots using a method that I have yet to develop (suggestions welcomed). This kind offer covers most of Princeton University Press's trade science titles and guide books (view their catalogue PDFs here) and they also pay postage, so this costs you NOTHING! All that you have to do is send me your mailing address after making your donation and you will be automatically entered into this competition.

I am also working on setting up more free prizes for my donors, so stay tuned for that!

It seems simple enough – a proliferation of donors in global health means more money to solve some of the world’s most pressing health issues. Right? Not exactly.
Because I know some people in these parts like numbers, I thought I'd give you a few stats for the Sb/Don
