<p>Welcome! This page focuses on expiring requests for educationally essential items. Paper; pencils; books, listening centers; hands-on math & science; music & art; exercise; basic furniture; document cameras; projectors.</p> <p><b><a href="http://www.donorschoose.org/donors/search.html?challengeId=81429&challengeid=81429&sortBy=3&max=50">Here's how to sort the projects on this page so you can see what's most urgent.</a></b> You'll also be able to sort by subject, place, etc.</p> <p>The page almost entirely excludes merely nice-to-have items like digital cameras and new computers because spending money there means real necessities don't get funded. <b>Schools can obtain - FOR FREE - computers to meet virtually any school need by applying to charities which give used computers to schools.</b> For example, check out <b><a href="http://www.freegeek.org/">Free Geek</a></b> and the government program for giving schools free computers. The original Free Geek is a ten year old nonprofit in Portland, Oregon; affiliates are popping up around the country.</p> <p>DonorsChoose projects always expire at midnight ET; they stay on "less than an hour left" status for hours. On the last day, add 5 to the listed # of hours left to get the true time remaining. If a project expires without being funded, you can easily apply your returned donations to other projects of your choice.</p> (By the way, DonorsChoose.org is a 501(c)3 charity. See below for approvals from Charity Navigator and the Better Business Bureau.) hide
