Attention Parents!!

I want to make sure my students have the materials they need to succeed. So I've created a classroom project request at DonorsChoose.org, an award-winning charity. I have put in a request for display panels that will be used to display artwork during the Spring Art Show.

I'm asking for donations of any size to help my kids. For the next three days, any donation you make to my project will be doubled (up to $100). If you know anyone who is passionate about education, please pass this along. Your donation will brighten my students' school year, and you'll get photos and thank yous from our class.


If my project gets fully funded by the end of the deadline in four months, then the display panels will be delivered to our school!

Here's my classroom request:
http://www.donorschoose.org/project/students-need-display-panels-for-art-sho/1127330/?rf=email_system_2013_12_teacherid_2098969&challengeid=345733/

To have your donation matched dollar for dollar, enter the promo code INSPIRE on the payment screen. This awesome match offer lasts through December 7.

My students and I greatly appreciate your support!!
