Donors Choose the South Side
Blogger Anil Dash (of blogging company Six Apart) has put up a 10% matching challenge* encouraging his readers to contribute to Donors Choose — a charity that helps public schools by allowing donors to pick specific requests from teachers to fund. And out of all the projects possible, this enthusiastic New Yorker is encouraging folks to contribute to a music listening center at Cassell Elementary on the South Side. Good on Anil, and I encourage you to go throw a couple bucks into the pot.
*i.e. If they donate $10,000 en mas, he’ll throw in an extra $1000.
