Save The Day: April 3
noon update
Welcome back, everyone! $17,069 as of this writing, thanks to a fabulous job by the weekend squad. (“Only” had to update that number three times while writing!) I’ll select winners for yesterday’s mini-prize momentarily.
Today’s mini-prize: any book you like from the Amazon Top 100 of 2010! Pick one out for yourself, or have it sent to a friend; all you have to do is donate through the Superpage by tomorrow (April 4) at 9 AM ET! Even a measly buck could win you a big fat Franzen!
I’d also like to take a moment to welcome all the teachers joining us on Tomato Nation and getting psyched about saving the day. Thanks so much for all you do, and give. Thanks also for not letting your students read the site, because I curse a lot. Heh. Please read over the FAQ to learn more about the site, and the contest.
Hey, guess what I haven’t forgotten about? That’s right: writing about pop culture and baseball, and the Read-Along. I’ve had a couple of other things going on, obvs, but I’ll update as usual all through the contest. Best way to keep abreast of new content is on Twitter; best way to follow me is that button at the top right there.
Woot Woot! Next paycheck ensures you will have more updating to do!
19K!
I so look forward to this donation drive every year. Thank you for organizing it and thank you for raising awareness of Donors Choose. I donate throughout the year and spread the word to get others to use this method of supporting creative teachers and kids in need.
