Donor funds for new teachers

Whether school is already back in session or just around the corner, DonorsChoose is ready to support teachers with an early-access funding opportunity.

Starting at 7 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 31, any teacher who is new to DonorsChoose will receive an automatic $50 donation on their first project. That’s an extra boost to help new teachers bring additional resources to the classroom.

How it works: Eligible teachers, those who have never had a fully funded project on DonorsChoose, submit their first project proposal between Aug. 31 and 3 a.m. (EST) on Sept. 7. The $50 donation will appear as soon as the project is approved and live on the site.
