Update: As of December 7, 2024 no funding remains for this opportunity.
Updated December 4th: the total project goal requirement is now $750. This is about $550 worth of materials.
Starting October 4th, qualifying projects will receive a 2X match on new donations. That means a $20 donation will become a $40 donation, and so on.
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 grades pre-K – 2nd.
- You’ve never had a project fully funded on DonorsChoose.
- Create a project requesting books and select the LITERACY & LANGUAGE subject area. Please ensure accurate representation and select the corresponding subject area only if it aligns with your project. If your project isn’t requesting books, then it will not qualify.
- Request under $750 for your total project goal, including taxes, shipping, fees, and the suggested donation to support DonorsChoose. Projects with a total project goal higher than $750 will not qualify. This is $550 worth of materials.
Frequently Asked Questions:
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.
