DonorsChoose Classroom Project Requests
Public-school educators post itemised requests for classroom resources and donors fund them; when a request is fully funded DonorsChoose buys the items and ships them to the requester.

- Eligibility
- The About page describes requests coming from teachers at US public schools, noting educators at 68% of American public schools have posted a project. It does not spell out which other school-based roles qualify, and the dedicated eligibility article could not be retrieved — confirm role eligibility with DonorsChoose before planning a school-based data-collection or materials request.
