DonorsChoose.org: Gift certificates

I just donated to my third donorschoose.org project. It's called "Change with Time" and the teacher describes it here.  I gave my family gift certificates for Christmas and we had fun searching for projects that were of interest to them.

• My brother likes Chess so he helped a teacher buy Chess strategy books for his students. 
• My mom wears a pedometer every day and is fanatical about getting her steps. She donated to a project to get pedometers for the students who would gather information while burning calories and learn about charting and analyzing data. 
• Rob works in energy conversion so he donated to a solar project.
• Rich is a retired teacher and farmer so he donated to an agriculture class learning about landscape design and soil testing.
• All DonorsChoose.org projects are submitted by public school teachers who seek resources essential to their students' success.

Check it out, it's fun! Best of all, I can pay for donations with Paypal. That makes it easy to contribute some of my bead proceeds to a good cause.
