Can I partially fund a project? What happens if the remainder is not funded by other donors?
Yes, you can partially fund a project, with a donation of any amount.
If a partially funded project expires, we'll send you an email so that you may choose choose exactly how your donation should be handled.
In the email, we'll ask you to select one of these options for spending your returned donation:
1. You choose a project to support. This option lets you browse through the many wonderful projects at DonorsChoose.org and find one that inspires you.
2. We choose a project that's in urgent need of funding on your behalf. This option is quick and easy, and gets resources into a high need classroom.
3. The teacher chooses a new project. This option is the best way to ensure that your donation is used by the same teacher and classroom you originally supported.
This email is sent the day after a project expires.
