BlackPlanet Rising has identified microgiving as an impactful way for individuals to give back to those in need. In these difficult economic times, making large donations has become more challenging for many people. However, a small monetary donation can still make a substantial impact, especially when it's part of a collective giving campaign to support people in need.
We strongly believe in the next generation of future leaders, which is why we have chosen "education" as a key area to support with BlackPlanet Rising's social mission agenda. In an effort to ensure students are receiving the best education possible, we have partnered with a well-recognized charitable organization called DonorsChoose.org, which connects users to public school classrooms in need. Donors give money to support critical resources such as books, supplies, computers, field trips, and guest speakers. You can choose which educational project you wish to support and DonorsChoose.org will deliver your contribution. In return, you'll receive photos and thank you notes from the students whose lives you've impacted with your donation.
All this is a simple way to provide students with much-needed resources that some public schools may lack. So check out the various classroom projects that need your support, select which you'd like to fund and help make an immediate difference in the educational experience of tomorrow's leaders. Look for those featured Double Your Impact programs where BlackPlanet Rising will match your donation, dollar for dollar! We appreciate your support! Get started at DonorsChoose.org and double your impact today!
