Request from a Teacher

Fellow COR members:

If you have not already spent your $100 "allowance" from Donor's Choose, please check your inbox for your gift card number and consider funding the project for my classroom. "Global Technology for a Global Learning Environment". http://www.donorschoose.org/donors/proposal.html?id=228782

My students have a partnership with a Russian class and if we have a notebook computer with a camera, we can meet them in an online teleconference.

We only need 4 more people to contribute and we will have the project funded!

Please consider helping us out.

Many thanks,

Dell Goodrich

USC Class Project - Fundraiser for local non-profits needs your support!

Hey everyone!

A USC student in the HRTM school that works for us part time is trying to raise money for Pets, Inc. for a class project by selling $10 raffle tickets. If you purchase a ticket, you will be entered in a drawing for a night at the Hilton, dinner for 2 at Ruth's Chris and 2 tickets to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Their goal is to raise $4,000 for Pets, Inc. and the drawing is Friday. Each group in the class was given $100 seed money for promotion that they give back to the University at the end. They each selected a different charity to promote. I thought this was such a great project and I really wanted to support it by helping get the word out, so if you can help by purchasing a ticket please check out the Facebook event page for more information or contact Chelsea Green directly. They will be in front of the Russell House selling tickets as well as other places around town.

Their HRSM 301 Professor has challenged them to perform a fundraiser for their choice of charity. Mr. Rick Gant gave each group a $100 dollar bill to raise as much money as possible for the charity they selected. Their group chose Pets Inc. and they used the $100 dollars to purchase two tickets to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. They received a donation from the luxurious Hilton Columbia Center for a free night stay and a dinner for two at the elegant Ruth's Chris Steak house. They printed up raffle tickets and are selling them for the above "Night on the Town" prize package. If you are at all interested in helping to support the Pets Inc. Foundation please join them Nov. 5, 2008 at the Russell House in front of Starbucks to purchase a ticket or contact Chelsea Green directly. Tickets are $10.00. This is a non-for-profit organization and all profits and proceeds will go directly to Pets Inc. Cookies and treats will be provided!
