ANNOUNCE: Classroom Funding for Prek-12 Teachers- Possible $1,000 with DonorsChoose

The Colorado Department of Education, in collaboration with DonorsChoose, is providing $1,000 in funding to help teachers purchase classroom supplies. Every Colorado PreK-12 public school teacher is eligible to apply for this opportunity while the $11 million in COVID-19 relief funds last.

Note: Since funding is limited, submit as soon as possible for the best chance to get your project approved.

Here’s How to Qualify:

Create a teacher account at www.donorschoose.org/teachers, if you don’t already have one.
Sign into your account.
Submit a project on DonorsChoose using the campaign code COLORADO, keep your total project goal under $1,000 (that’s about $800 in materials).
When submitting your project request, describe how the supplies will help support student learning after the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
If your project is approved, funding from CDE, of up to $1,000, will appear on your DonorsChoose project page and you’ll receive an email from DonorsChoose when the funding arrives.
- When you receive an email from DonorsChoose indicating your project has been funded, confirm your funded project using a district email address as soon as possible and before Sept. 30.
