GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN.
If we still had these, they would represent $2.
If everyone who read this blog regularly donated $2 to DonorsChoose, we would be able to buy some baseball equipment for an underprivileged high school in Brooklyn that wants to start girls playing softball. The teacher who’s sponsoring one of the programs describes her dream in her own words:
In order to ensure not only our success as a team but also the confidence of each player at bat, we are in need of a pitching machine. This would be a great help since I will be the only coach and cannot pitch while assisting the girls with other skills. I hope that the machine will help find our next “Michele Smith” or even our next female “Hank Aaron”!
$2. I know, money is tight. But $2 is HALF of what you would have spent to get to Shea for the playoffs just for one game.
I don’t see this money. I don’t touch this money. I get nothing from it. Everything is handled through a reputable 501(c)3 charity. You can send in a check, you can use a credit card. Please, at least click through and read about the two projects before you decide it’s not for you. Just $2!
Next week, we return to content, as I review 2007: The Year That Wasn’t.
