FUND RAISING – Our School NEEDS Contest – Another way of raising money – Just VOTE!

Microsoft BING 100k Contest down to 15 schools and the voting has started.  You get to vote once each day, you also get to raise money for your own cause.  Each vote can be worth $3.00 for your own cause – get your teachers and parents voting!

In addition to supporting the Our School Needs finalists, the first 30,000 voters each day can get a $3 donation code for DonorsChoose.org — an online charity where teachers post classroom projects in need of funding so people like you can help bring them to life.*

At the conclusion of the contest, up to $900,000 in donation codes will have been given out so voters can help schools across the country in need of resources!

You can still raise awareness and donation money for your project. Visit DonorsChoose.org to learn more their unique non-profit website. Established in 2000 by a former social studies teacher, DonorsChoose.org enables schools to post their projects and individuals nationwide to donate to them.
