Campus can support DonorsChoose.org #BestSchoolDay
This is a guest post from the University’s Leadership Project:
Too many students in K-12 classrooms don’t have the resources they need. Students can’t dream big when classrooms lack books, microscopes and tablets — or even paper, pencils and paste.
Now you can make a difference through Wake Forest’s #BestSchoolDay.
On March 29 faculty, staff and students can support a K-12 classroom by picking up a free $25 DonorsChoose.org gift card in one of several locations around campus and redeeming it toward a project of their choice. Participants are only able to redeem one gift card. Our goal is to have all 1,000 gift cards picked up on March 29 and redeemed on the same day. Gift cards will be available for pick up at most locations from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.:
- Outside the main entrance of the Fresh Food Company (The Pit),
- At the Spirit Walk in between Tribble Hall and Benson Center,
- At Wake Forest University Law Commons,
- In the faculty lounge in the School of Divinity (11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. only),
- In the Founders Day Living Room at the School of Business
- At the Luter Hall Block Party for First-year Students (5 p.m. – 7 p.m. only)
You can choose from among hundreds of projects nationwide, although you are encouraged to support a local teacher in Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools. Donate to one project or split your $25 among several projects.
#BestSchoolDay at Wake Forest is being held in conjunction with the University’s Leadership Project, which is hosting Charles Best, CEO of DonorsChoose.org on Tuesday, April 5, at 6 p.m. in Broyhill Auditorium in Farrell Hall.
DonorsChoose.org provides a simple way to address educational inequity. In Forsyth County so far this academic year, 174 projects, including hands-on science labs, vocabulary enrichment tools and playground improvements for children with special needs, have been funded — supporting more than 13,500 students. In the local school system, nearly 450 teachers have raised funds for more than 1,000 projects since 2003.
Please help make Wake Forest’s #BestSchoolDay a community success by picking up and redeeming a $25 gift card on March 29.
For questions or more information on gift card distribution, contact Matt Williams at williamj@nullwfu.edu.
