Donorschoose.org!!!
Donorschoose.org is a wonderful website and organization that helps school and teachers raise money for classroom supply's and special items that need funding.
I set up an account to get a new rug for the art room to define a space for reading and learning as a group and for sharing ideas with each other.
Please pass along the info to anyone who would be willing to help the cause and would like to help out our school.
