Update: As of August 25, 2024 no funding remains for this opportunity.
Starting August 12th, qualifying projects will receive a 10X match on new donations. That means a $20 donation will become a $200 donation, and so on.
For teachers who have never had a project funded before on DonorsChoose, they will be eligible to receive a one-time donation of $500 on one project if it also matches the criteria below.
If your project meets the criteria below, new donations on your project will be matched as long as funding remains. Once your project is approved and live on the site, you will see the match offer displayed on your project page.
How to qualify:
- Teach in Prince George's County, Maryland
- Request under $1,000 for your total project goal, including taxes, shipping, fees, and the suggested donation to support DonorsChoose
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can I post multiple projects for this match offer?
Yes! A teacher can have multiple projects receive the matching donations from this match offer.
For teachers who have never had a project funded before on DonorsChoose, you are eligible to receive the one-time donation of $500 on a single project. Once you have received the one-time donation, it will not be applied to any additional projects. If you post multiple projects, the one-time donation will be applied to the first eligible project that is approved by our team.
Q: Are there any restrictions on which donations are matched?
All new donations to live projects are eligible for this match. Previous donations placed before the match offer's start date will not be matched.
Q: How can I edit my posted project?
If your project has not received any donations, you can make any edits by returning your project to a draft status. You can do this by heading over to the Projects section of your account and clicking on the "Return project to draft" button underneath your project title. Once your project is in draft status, you can make any edits and resubmit it. Then, it will be re-screened by our team and re-posted if eligible. Read more about editing your project.
