Hello,
My name is Katherine and I was born and raised in Maine. I
attended public schools, and my mother was a teacher. I now
work at a non-profit in New York, DonorsChoose.org.
DonorsChoose.org is dedicated to addressing the scarcity and
inequitable distribution of learning materials and
experiences in our public schools. Founded in 2000 by
Charles Best, a social studies teacher in the Bronx,
DonorsChoose.org has steadily grown--and has just opened to
serve EVERY public school in the United States!
We recently received a generous grant to help fund our
expansion into the state of Maine, and I'm helping in the
effort to reach as many teachers in Maine that I can!
So please, help us spread the word: Now, ANY public school
teacher in Maine - from Fort Kent to Kittery - can request
valuable resources for their classrooms. Tell a public
school teacher to submit a classroom project today. Or even
better, submit your own project!
Our website provides a teacher tutorial and more information
about the process. Also, I am happy to help any Maine
teacher learn about all of the amazing resources they can
receive for their classrooms!
Best of luck,
Katherine
