Ever since Stella posted up about her sister's, the teacher, fundraising effort I've been contributing to projects.

I donated to this teacher last year, and I will every year because I really like the fact that he uses the funding to give his kids a memory that will last a lifetime.

Give it some consideration.

I'll bring it up with the money manager.

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I realize everyone has their hand out, and the 'season' might not be the right time for this pitch, but...

after you sober up from New Years celebrations...

give it some thought. You can donate until March.

Imagine a bunch of 3rd graders from NH loose in The Museum of Science in Boston all night long. Evil

My sister, retired teacher now, is still in awe at the kindness of the DMF'ers.    chug


My younger sister was one of the parents who went with her daughter and her class to the Chicago Museum of Nature and Science last weekend for an overnighter.

Happy to help the NH kiddos experience this same thing.  Thanks for sharing DP.

Just thought I'd update...this project is now fully funded.

Thanks to all who helped.
