Help students in need with the DonorsChoose Science Bloggers Challenge!

I’m pleased to announce that Southern Fried Science has once again joined the DonorsChoose Science Bloggers for Students Challenge! For those of you unfamiliar with DonorsChoose, they are an online charity that allows public school teachers to describe projects, and allows anyone to donate to these projects. In the past, the Science Bloggers Challenge has raised tens of thousands of dollars for worthy class projects all over the country!

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be highlighting some of our favorite ocean-themed projects, and we hope you’ll consider supporting them by donating! The 13 projects we’ve chosen to support will help teachers all over the country to teach students about the ocean and the amazing creatures that live there. You can see all of our supported projects, and the funding status of each, in the widget on the left side of the blog. You can also visit our DonorsChoose giving page.

The Challenge ends November 5th, so if you’re thinking about donating, don’t wait too long!
