DonorsChoose.org brings together patrons and needy teachers—online. U.S. public school teachers can post requests, such as for basic school supplies, 25 copies of Macbeth, or a classroom laptop, and donors may search for projects to fund. Any amount is accepted. Browse by location to find a classroom near you, by subject area, or to identify teachers with the most urgent requests. For their generosity benefactors often receive classroom photos and even student thank-you notes.

Founded in 2000 by a former public school teacher, DonorsChoose has raised more than $50 million, helped 3.3 million students, and reached more than 36,000 schools. Currently DonorsChoose lists more than 12,000 projects in need of your help!

Flag Abuse

Flagging a post will send it to the Goodreads Customer Care team for review. We take abuse seriously in our discussion boards. Only flag comments that clearly need our attention. As a general rule we do not censor any content on the site. The only content we will consider removing is spam, slanderous attacks on other members, or extremely offensive content (eg. pornography, pro-Nazi, child abuse, etc). We will not remove any content for bad language alone, or being critical of a particular book.
