ScienceBlogs is giving away prizes to DonorsChoose donors

The DonorsChoose '08 Blogger Challenge has been wildly successful so far; you, our readers, have exceeded expectations with your generous donations, now totalling over $16,500. Whether it's the competitive aspect that's driving you to donate or simply the goodness of your hearts we don't know, but either way, ScienceBlogs would like to reward you.

Every Friday we'll draw names for a portion of the prizes. At the end of the contest, we'll also have a drawing for one Apple iPod Touch, from all the submissions we've received throughout the challenge.

Choose a project to donate to now, and send us your submission to enter next week's drawing!
