DonorsChoose.org Volunteer Program

Named one of the "50 Most Innovative Companies in the World" by Fast Company Magazine, DonorsChoose.org is an online charity that makes it easy for anyone to help students in need. Our mission is to move us closer to a nation where students in every community have the tools and experiences they need for a great education.

Public school teachers from every corner of America create classroom project requests, and you can give any amount to the project that inspires you. To ensure integrity, we're there through every step of every project. We vet all requests, purchase each item, and ship materials directly to verified schools. Our team has vetted and fulfilled over 600,000 classroom project requests that range from butterfly cocoons, to robotics kits, to Little House on the Prairie. Many of us are former teachers, so our operation feels like a cross between a startup and a schoolhouse.
