<p>If you make it a habit to donate money to charity, my wife found one of the best charities we&#8217;ve ever discovered. It&#8217;s called <a title="Donors Choose" href="http://www.donorschoose.org/gates?j=9567038&amp;e=ltp3@itsjustdm.com&amp;l=1285321_HTML&amp;u=78943725&amp;mid=74080&amp;jb=0" target="_blank"><strong>Donors Choose</strong></a>.</p>
<p>You give. They deliver. Your donation changes lives.</p>
<h4>The Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation has set a challenge for this cause&#8230;</h4>
<p>They&#8217;ll fund 50% of any classroom project that prepares students in rural and high-poverty communities for college &#8211; but only if citizens (that&#8217;s you!) take these projects the rest of the way.</p>
<p>Give now to an eligible classroom project and make your donation go twice as far.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s show these students we believe in their college dreams &#8211; and make sure they have college prep books, science equipment, literature and math textbooks waiting for them when they head back back to high school in the fall.</p>
<p>To make your donation go to <strong><a href="http://www.donorschoose.org/gates?j=9567038&amp;e=ltp3@itsjustdm.com&amp;l=1285321_HTML&amp;u=78943725&amp;mid=74080&amp;jb=0" target="_blank">&#8220;Most Urgent Project Requests&#8221; with Matching Offers by Bill and Melinda Gates</a></strong>.</p>
