(Why is this Special Attn: SAS Employees?  Everyone can donate through DonorsChoose.org to help with the 8th Grade purchase and double your donation this week, but if a SAS Employee donates to DonorsChoose through the SAS web site, then SAS will also match the donation, so your donation is effectively tripled if made by Oct. 4.)

Double Your Donations with the Match Code: INSPIRE

For the next 5 days until October 4, the DonorsChoose.org Board of Directors will match all donations to this project if you type the code INSPIRE into the Match Code field.

Things to Remember

• Don’t forget to use the Match Code!
• If you have any matching donation codes you received from your employer for your previous DonorsChoose.org donations, don’t forget that you can apply them to this project if you like.
• You don’t have to donate towards DonorsChoose.org if you don’t want to! If you don’t want to make the 15% suggested donation part of your donation, click“optional 15% donation” to adjust your percentage to what you would prefer to donate towards DonorsChoose. See the example for a previous project in red below:

• 6th Grade Technology in the Classroom Part 2 in honor or in memory donation

  $20.00 edit | delete includes optional 15% donation to support DonorsChoose.org

From the 8th Grade Team….

Hello Exploris Friends & Parents,

We want to make sure our students have the materials they need to succeed. So we’ve created a classroom project request at DonorsChoose.org .

We are asking for donations of any size to help. For the next week, any donation you make to our project will be doubled (up to $100).To have your donation matched dollar for dollar, enter the match code INSPIRE on the payment screen. This awesome match offer lasts through October 4, 2013.

If you know anyone who is passionate about education, please pass this along. Your donation will brighten our students’ school year, and you’ll get photos and thank yous from our class.
