Teacher FAQs

How do I upload a photo to my account page and projects?

Uploading a classroom photo is easy and should take just a few minutes. Be sure to choose a good one – your classroom photo will appear on every project you post to DonorsChoose.org!

Here's how it works:

  1. Sign into your teacher account, then select the “upload photo” button on your My Account page.
  2. On the next page, read through the guidelines about safety and what makes a good photo, then click “Select Photo.”
  3. Choose a photo from your computer to upload to your account that will be displayed on your DonorsChoose.org projects.
  4. Confirm that you agree to the conditions by checking off the boxes.
  5. Click Upload!

Please note: It may take a few minutes for your photo to show on your account page and projects. If your photo does not appear immediately, please refresh the page after a few minutes and it should show up!

If you are having trouble uploading a photo, click on the “Having Trouble?” link for troubleshooting tips. If you continue to experience problems, please submit a Contact Form for Teachers under the issue area “Account Photo.”
