On November 27th, an incredible 19,681 people from across the United States celebrated #GivingTuesday by supporting over 16,500 teachers. Thanks to their generosity, we were able to send thousands of boxes full of supplies to classrooms, which means tens of thousands of students will get the chance to start their 2019 with the tools they need to learn. Thank you so much to everyone who helped spread the giving spirit!But that’s not all. Every one of those donors and the teachers they supported got the chance to win a $5,000 DonorsChoose.org gift card. We drew the names, and shared the good news with all of our lucky teachers and donors. They’ve received their gift codes, and we can’t wait to see what classroom dreams they’ll bring to life!
