Donors Choose Makes American Express Contest Finals

Here's an email I just received from Donorschoose.org. If you are a cardholder, please help the organization win $1.5 million for our schools by voting for Donorschoose.org. Think about how many projects that money could fund! As we say in Chicago, "Vote early and vote often!"

Friends and Contacts,

If you are an American Express cardholder, I hope so much that you will vote for our entry, “Help 100,000 children thrive in the classroom.”Without spending a dime, you could help us win $1.5 million from American Express. All the funds will go to classroom requests on our site, delivering books, technology, art supplies, and other learning materials to 100,000 students in need.This is a situation where your vote could make a huge difference. Please take one minute to vote today, and please ask your friends to do the same. You simply need to:

1. Log-in at the AmEx Members Project website2. Vote! You should then see a gold star on our project, "Help 100,000 Children Thrive in the Classroom"

Finally, please remember to forward this email to all your friends who care about our public schools!

Gratefully,Kirk
