DonorsChoose.org is a great idea. It allows anyone and everyone to help out with as little or as much as they choose.
Basically school teachers in the US who find themselves in need, make a request, explaining exactly what they are missing from their classroom.

As a huge bonus, this month, under 'Science bloggers for students', all us science bloggers are trying to get as many people involved as possible. You see, for every dollar you donate, HP will match it, and we'll get double the impact and double the help!
