Video: LAUSD Teachers Talk About DonorsChoose

Could your classroom use more technology, art supplies, or graphing calculators?  A new partnership between the Wasserman Foundation and DonorsChoose.org can help!

Thanks to a $2 million donation from the Wasserman Foundation, LAUSD parents will be given FREE $15 gift cards to support classroom projects on DonorsChoose. The Wasserman Foundation has also donated an additional $2 million, making this a total of $4 million, to match any private donations to an LAUSD classroom over the next two years.

Teachers can take advantage of this opportunity by logging on at www.donorschoose.org/teachers and posting a classroom project of your choice.  Posting a project should take no more than 15 minutes. More than 2,000 teachers have posted classroom projects to DonorsChooseLA.org!

Parents, make sure you redeem your FREE $15 DonorsChooseLA.org gift card from your school to support an LAUSD classroom. Then log on to www.donorschooseLA.org and donate to a classroom project using your free gift card before Feb. 16, 2012 (extended deadline).

For more information, please visit our LAUSD Families website at http://families.lausd.net/DonorsChooseLA.

Hear LAUSD teachers talk about how DonorsChoose has helped their classroom and how it can work for you.
