DonorsChoose and The School Nurse
.png)
I have a hefty budget, but there are always a few items each year on my "wish list". I usually try to budget the funds I have so that at the end of a school year I have enough leftover to purchase one of my wish list items. Not anymore!
Thanks to a participant of The School Nurse Facebook groups (public school nurse Fb group, private school nurse Fb group), I don't have to wait any longer. A couple of years ago she shared how she was able to receive funds and purchase items for her school nurse office by using the funding source DonorsChoose!
I was hopeful that if she was successful in receiving funding that I might be able to too! I decided to give DonorsChoose a try and so far I've tallied up four fully funded projects & I have high hopes of many more too! The process was actually very simple and user friendly. Remember, if her and I can do it, then you can too! (PS you must work in a public school).
To date, I've received over $2000 in funding to purchase items for my school nurse office & you can too! You can read all about the projects I've completed HERE or by clicking the image below... Then start your very own project HERE!
- DonorsChoose is very user friendly! They provide you with step-by-step directions.
- DonorsChoose collects all donated money. They purchase the items you've selected.
- DonorsChoose has the items shipped directly to your public school!
I advertise my projects on my personal Facebook page and ask friends and families to share with others. I have received donations from friends, families, businesses, and even strangers who are looking to support public schools!
