Reach for the Stars!

DonorsChoose.org isn’t the first site of its kind — think Kiva.org and GlobalGiving.org — but it takes the process an important step further with its feedback element. Give $100 or more (or be the donor who provides the last chunk needed to finish funding on a project — no matter what the amount), and you get a personal thank-you package from the students who benefit from it. Not only that, but the DonorsChoose.org site is delightfully simple — everything you need to know about the organization is just a keystroke away from the homepage.
