In addition to the tissues and graphing calculators on most school supplies lists, teachers might consider something new — a small cash donation. For its relatively-new back-to-school promotion, crowdfund site GoFundMe is gifting a $50 donation to classrooms that raise at least $250 from five different donors.
The campaign that raises the most money will also win a $10,000 prize for their school.
To be eligible for the $50 donation, classrooms must create their campaign using this link between Aug. 17 and Sept 16 (and with the hashtag #GFMtoSchool embedded in the description). Additional details are available on the contest page.
The company’s last promotion, in celebration of Teacher Appreciation Week, gave more than $1 million to teachers through $100 donations.
