An update

Good news from the mothership. SEED magazine has come out and stated that it will match the total donations from our DonorsChoose drive up to $10,000. Yes, folks, your $10 donation is now worth $20. So don't delay.

I know this is a little like one of those public radio/tv pledge drives that annoy you every few months. But look on the bright side ... I'm not going to give you a Yanni CD for your donation, just the warm satisfied feeling that you've helped.

Thanks to those who have given already!
