We’re coming into the home stretch of our annual DonorsChoose Science Bloggers for Students drive:
Science Bloggers for Students: No Apocalypse in Sight (Transcript below)
And, now until the end of the drive, you can get your donations matched (up to $100 per donor) thanks to the generosity of the DonorsChoose.org Board of Directors. Just enter the match code SCIENCE in the “Match or gift code” field as you check out.
By the way, the DonorsChoose.org Board of Directors has put up $50,000 in matching funds, so once you’ve hit your match code limit, you might want to nudge your family, friends, and social media contacts to give to worthy projects and get their donations matched.
My giving page for the challenge is here. You can find other giving pages from Scientopia bloggers here.
Thanks in advance for your generosity!
Transcript of the video:
Today is November 1, 2012, which means that the prediction that the world would end in October of 2012? Didn’t happen. Now what?
After your hard work laying in emergency supplies for the apocalypse, a new day dawns … and there’s stuff to do: dishes to wash, rabbit runs to clean, and public school classrooms that still need help getting funds for equipment, field trips, even basic classroom supplies.
Here’s where DonorsChoose comes in: Pick a giving page from the Science Bloggers for Students challenge. Check out the projects and find one that matters to you. Give what you can, even if it’s just a buck. And now, until the end of the drive, you can use the match code SCIENCE to double your donation, up to $100. Give a dollar, the project you’re funding gets two dollars. Give $100, the project gets $200.
The world didn’t end — this time. So take this opportunity to do some good and help some kids before it does.
