Where to Go When Your Budget Says No

Ed Leadership - Double Take

Schools may want to check out the following online-based philanthropies that provide small grants and financial help for schools, classrooms, and teachers to purchase supplies they can't afford:

  • www.donorschoose.org
    Public school teachers post classroom project requests on the site. Potential donors can browse requests and give any amount to the one that inspires them. Once a project reaches its funding goal, Donors Choose delivers the materials to the school.
  • www.iloveschools.com
    This nonprofit online donation center connects new, used, and in-kind resources with schools. Donors select the classrooms that will receive their donation and say how much the center can use to cover its administrative costs.
  • www.digitalwish.com
    This organization develops new online tools and promotions that help teachers get new technology for their classrooms. Since August 2009, Digital Wish has granted more than 24,000 classroom technology wishes and delivered more than $10 million in technology products to U.S. classrooms.
  • www.adoptaclassroom.org
    A donor selects a classroom and makes a contribution for the teacher to purchase needed resources. Donors may search for classrooms by geographical area, school name, teacher name, or other search criteria. If a donor has no preference, Adopt-A-Classroom partners the donor with an underserved classroom in the community.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
