Wow...just wow.
In one week, we were able to raise $612 to help complete projects from our DonorsChoose Giving Page! Thanks to 22 of you generous souls not ony were we able to reach over 1,200 students but we also beat Mac|Life handily. Check out the side by side comparisson:
Neat, right? Here's some quotes from teachers we helped:
Mr. C, Calculators! Project: "Thank you so much for your donations. The technology that you are helping me provide to my students will be so helpful in motivating them to want to learn about mathematics and be excited about it!"
Ms. H, Technology for Special Needs Kids Project: " For students with special needs, hands on learning is extremely important- and the laptop will engage them. Your donations have granted my students the chance to become technologically literate and prepared for a bright future. Our new laptop will be a truly amazing addition to our classroom. Thank you all so much!"
Ms. L, Motivating Students with Autism through Visual Support: "What a blessing to have people like you who are so caring about students in need. I am so grateful to all of you for donating to our project. I have been utilizing VizZle with my whole class and have seen the students inspired to learn with much more enthusiasm."
Feels good, right? Well then, let's do it again for Week 2 - this week we have an awesome Creative Sound Blaster Wireless Rock Outdoor Speaker. (We will be providing the Sound Blaster USB Wireless Transmitter with it as well). It's a great (waterproof) addition to any backyard activity!
All you need to do is donate to a project on our Giving Page and forward the receipt to me at amber at maximumpc dot com and you're entered to win! Just make sure to do it before the deadline of Saturday, October 16 11:59pm Pacific. Note: you MUST, MUST email me your receipt to be entered!! Otherwise, I have no way to reach you to let you know if you have won! Questions? Check our FAQ or shoot me an email.
Big congrats and Android love to last week's winner, Stephen McGann, who has won a four-pack of blind box Android Collectibles by contributing directly to DonorsChoose!
Let's keep up the good work, help out some kids, and oh yeah, BEAT MAC|LIFE!

C'mon Rotten. You know liberals only give away OTHER PEOPLES money. They spend all their own money on iPhones, iPads, Mac Books, etc. Especially since Apple products cost 3X as much as the equivalent MS or Android based device. ;-)
