Wow, it seems that all of the projects I was supporting have been funded: Oh! Rats!, Math, Writing, and Art!, and Don't be a Twit all hit their goals this past week!!! So thanks to everyone who gave, through my site or someone else's, and enriched the education of these students!!

But, of course, there's always more that can be done, and I've added two new projects to my Donor Page. The first of these is Budding Scientists Need Microscopes...do I really need to say more? I still remember the first time I got to look into a microscope at age 9. The schools I went to didn't have them, though, and my parents finally gave me my own after a few months of begging. This project originates from an elementary school in Killeen, Texas, where science education is not always given its fair due, and not all the parents can afford this type of gift for their kids. Who knows what would have become of "Dr. O" had it not been for my first microscope. The project still needs $524 to buy 8 microscopes...so go donate!!

The next project is Annual Spring Science Fair Supplies, also fairly self-explanatory. I don't know about anyone else here, but I loved science fairs as a kid, and my parents always made sure I had the ability to participate and make my project look good (the presentation is just as important as the message, after all). Also from a low-income school (this one in Columbus, Ohio), the teacher is requesting tri-fold boards so that her students can participate in a science fair. That's it - boards for a science fair. Certainly we can make this happen!! The project has $544 left to be completed...go do it!!!
