DonorsChoose.org Campaign in Partnership with LAUSD and the Wasserman Foundation
The Wasserman Foundation • The Wasserman Foundation funds organizations in the fields of education, health care, and arts & culture. • They have donated $4 million to LAUSD through DonorsChoose.org to be used over the next 2 years. • $2 million in $15 gift cards • $2 million to match donations made online
What is DonorsChoose.org? • DonorsChoose.org is an online charity where public school teachers can post classroom project requests. • People can then browse the site and donate money to the project(s) of their choice.
How does it work? • Schools will receive $15 gift cards based on their enrollment. • Gifts cards will be given to parents at the school sites, not through mail. • Parents can go online, enter the code on their gift card, and donate their $15 to the project of their choice - at no cost to the school or parents! • www.donorschoosela.org • Gift cards expire on February 16, 2012.
How do I use my card? • Go to www.donorschoosela.org • Enter the code on your card • Search for the project you wish to help fund
What now? • Encourage other parents to use their cards! • If you see other parents – in the parent center, at meetings, in the neighborhood – talk about DonorsChoose with them! • Help other parents get online and show them how to make their donations!
